Hello there, Strand's family! It's a new day, a new game, and a whole new way to watch me race through it, huh? Well, today's puzzle was pretty easy too, thank goodness. But there was some deception it threw at me, and I needed a leg up. It was super fun though, and I never felt under the weather solving it. With that being said, let's take a look at what March 17 Strands had in store!

As revealed by the New York Times, the theme of today's Strand is "Outside Interests."

Compared to last day's "Grow up!" theme, today's theme didn't seem as immediate. My mind took the angle of outdoor activities immediately. But, was it that simple? Or something completely different? You will soon find out.

Oh, by the way, if you're new to this game, check out our guide on how to play NYT Strands.
