hi, everyone (singular is my phantom)

8:28 am

hokie carla

hey welki

8:29 am

saanichcat

hi welki!

8:33 am

hokie carla

are you still in the US, welki?

8:33 am

welki

yes, in arizona, about 45 min east of quartzsite

8:34 am

welki

(translation: in the middle of nowhere)

8:35 am

hokie carla

is that really a town or just a lot of quartz around?

8:36 am

welki

it's a real town - best known for the deluge of thousands of people in january for the annual rock and gem (and concurrent rv) show

8:36 am

hokie carla

ooh, sounds fun

8:36 am

welki

i think most of the folks who attend boondock on blm land near the town

8:37 am

saanichcat

sounds intriguing, do you go there often? I collect rocks; love 'rock' shows

8:37 am

hokie carla

I have a box full of gems in various stages of tumbling that I couldn't bear to throw away when we moved. need a new tumbler.

8:38 am

hokie carla

bare?

8:38 am

welki

nah, we've been there once. thinking of going to see what all the hubbub's about.

8:38 am

welki

hang on saanich - going to try to change my icon to show you my treasure

8:39 am

saanichcat

oh you do that too carla, needs a lot of patience

8:39 am

hokie carla

yeah, that's why I never finished before

8:40 am

saanichcat

the one you have is beautiful

8:40 am

saanichcat

(welki's icon)

8:41 am

saanichcat

Carla I have two tumblers stuck with dust and stones. Spring jobs..

8:41 am

hokie carla

I had a double tumbler but it had been on my screened porch forever and quit working

8:42 am

saanichcat

bummer

8:43 am

welki

there - it's serpentinite (but i think it looks like a turtle)

8:44 am

welki

i've also collected some marble (pink and white) from an abandoned, old mine on one of our utv trips

8:44 am

welki

(oh - i didn't find the serpentinite, i spotted it in a local shop)

8:45 am

saanichcat

sorry the serpentinite didn't show up here so I googled it and had a good look

8:46 am

welki

maybe a refresh/reload will bring it up

8:46 am

hokie carla

funny, when I saw the pic, I was like, is that a snake?

8:46 am

hokie carla

I had to click on welki's profile to get it to come up. will do a hard refresh.

8:46 am

saanichcat

In the 60s I found an abandoned marble shop in seattle; a real treasure

8:47 am

saanichcat

what's a hard refresh again please?

8:47 am

welki

from hokie's profile: hard refresh on mac - command shift R
hard refresh on win - CTRL-F5

8:47 am

hokie carla

check my profile...I have windows and mac instructions

8:48 am

hokie carla

welki's too fast

8:48 am

welki

<-- has to be really careful about how many rocks she picks up, or we'll be reenacting The Long, Long Trailer :D

8:49 am

hokie carla

ha

8:50 am

saanichcat

9:00 am

9:01 am

saanichcat

Welki finally got it! WOW! Lovely. Thanks.

aebmusica

African musical instrument

9:02 am

9:02 am

welki

9:02 am

hokie carla

sounds like fun, welki

9:29 am

hokie carla

we are heading to FL in Feb with our tent. ðŸ¤ªðŸ˜± we booked things last year and sold the motorhome in Dec. might try to find some vrbo houses too. who knows how long we'll be gone.

9:30 am

hokie carla

may have to come back if we can't find anywhere to stay

9:30 am

welki

it really is, seain - i wouldn't have thought i'd enjoy it as much as i do. we have to stay close for the next few days; we had rain last night and the trails wash out badly

9:30 am

dcseain

my sister hever had trouble finding a place to camp in florida

9:31 am

welki

hokie! i knew you were thinking of selling the mh, didn't know you found a buyer - congrats!

9:31 am

hokie carla

do you know when she went seain? I think it's way harder in winter with the snowbirds.

9:32 am

dcseain

april to november. once in february, to key west.

9:32 am

welki

i'd think tent camping sites would be easier to find than rv sites. that said, kudos to you for tenting - i'd need a cot and a hydraulic winch to haul me up in the morning

9:32 am

hokie carla

well, we did it on consignment so of course not the best, but we were glad to get rid of it

9:33 am

hokie carla

we have one cot, but mr. hokie prefers the queen air mattress.

9:34 am

hokie carla

yes, we are looking forward to being able to get sites easier than being restricted to what will fit a 40' motorhome

9:35 am

hokie carla

but one of the campgrounds we got is RV only and tent only sites, and they don't have any tent only avail during that time. they will not let you put a tent on the spot we have. trying to talk mr. hokie's sister into putting her camper on it for us. ðŸ¤£

9:36 am

periwinkle

help with the i please and the lower R in right column

9:36 am

hokie carla

seain, I checked all 4 state parks in the keys are they are all booked solid. you really do have to get online 11 mos. out right at 8am (maybe 7) to get spots.

9:37 am

hokie carla

which is how I have the 2 booked I do have

9:37 am

BzznBea

lower r is ri6.27

9:37 am

hokie carla

peri, 9:28 for i clue

9:37 am

dcseain

9:37 am

mkg

Ri+ no hair

9:38 am

mkg

Need clue for the i word desperately. Just not seeing it or getting it. I know it is is 7. That is all i know.

9:38 am

periwinkle

9:38 am

periwinkle

ty for ri word

9:38 am

mkg

Wow peri. Any help welcome.

9:38 am

hurshy

i gave clue at 9:28, mkg

9:38 am

hokie carla

I just got a book that lists other campgrounds from places besides the state parks system (like nat'l forests, etc) that I didn't know about, so going to check that out.

9:39 am

dcseain

is7 is one who isâ€”-s a thing.

9:39 am

dcseain

oh, cool, good luck

9:39 am

mkg

Fantastic clue at 928. Got it. Ty ty ty

9:39 am

hurshy

i thought it would likely mean that too seain but i looked it up and it doesn't... it's something from heraldry!

9:40 am

dcseain

interesting!

9:40 am

rururocks

I hope you don't get eaten by a gator hokie

9:40 am

hurshy

ruru says what i was thinking

9:40 am

rururocks

or a boa constrictor

9:40 am

dcseain

oh, neat, read definition!

9:40 am

dcseain

odds are low for both, ru

9:41 am

rururocks

we're talking about hokie here

9:43 am

hokie carla

I remember seeing is7 when I worked at a law office

9:43 am

welki

carla, keep looking for cancellations

9:44 am

hokie carla

I hope I don't either, ruru! one of the campgrounds said it was on the edge of the everglades with gators, panthers, etc. but they have tent camping and it didn't say anything about that being an issue. I told mr. homie nope.

9:44 am

hokie carla

yeah, that's my plan, welki.

9:45 am

hurshy

i had a dream that involved panthers last night

9:45 am

hurshy

i didn't remember until you just said that

9:45 am

rururocks

jeesus hokie

9:45 am

hokie carla

PS - the dictionary.com word of the day is welkin

9:45 am

rururocks

I didn't know they had panthers there too

9:45 am

penquis

hello all...

9:45 am

hokie carla

yep, the florida panther

9:46 am

hokie carla

pen!

9:46 am

penquis

carla!

9:46 am

hokie carla

this was near naples, and the last time I went there I remember seeing signs about how many panthers were killed by cars in the last year. not sure how many are left there.

9:47 am

hurshy

bottom T help? i have tr6/24 but that's all

9:47 am

rururocks

usually the panthers get killed by the buccaneers

9:47 am

hokie carla

wow, fl state parks says only 120-230 left

9:47 am

hokie carla

tr5/10 is all I have with the 6, hurshy

9:47 am

Aloyisius

that was a good one, ru.. hi all

9:48 am

penquis

just extend the tr 5...

9:48 am

hokie carla

btw, wonder if the dallas zoo found their missing clouded leopard?

9:48 am

rururocks

yes.. they found it

9:48 am

hokie carla

geez, thx pen. I am not good at extending words.

9:48 am

hokie carla

where did they find it?

9:48 am

hokie carla

I liked how they said it wasn't dangerous

9:49 am

rururocks

dunno. but it's back safe

9:49 am

penquis

yw...

9:49 am

rururocks

at least as safe as a zoo is

9:49 am

hurshy

ah ty hokie and pen

9:50 am

hurshy

they said that it appeared someone had purposely cut an opening in the snow leopard's habitat

9:50 am

hokie carla

oh wow

9:50 am

hurshy

when they found it, it was not far from the habitat

9:52 am

rururocks

I don't believe in zoos however

9:52 am

hokie carla

you don't believe they exist? they do

9:52 am

hurshy

same here ruru

9:52 am

hurshy

we believe they ought not to exist. a refuge can be a good thing. a zoo not so much.

9:53 am

hokie carla

the NC zoo is nice. it's the world's largest natural habitat zoo.

9:53 am

hurshy

esp for certain animals. like in the wild, elephants travel HUNDREDS of miles as they roam about. you can't make a habitat that big.

9:54 am

welki

haha - welkin, fits me to a t

9:54 am

hurshy

i'd have said it fits you to an n

9:54 am

hokie carla

I did think it was fitting when I read the def

9:55 am

welki

yes, since without the n, i'd only be welki

9:56 am

welki

different definitions, depending on dictionary - dictionary.com is the one i was talking about

9:56 am

hurshy

well, i've made it through the grid with no luck on 8s but found all the 7s

9:56 am

BzznBea

the 8's are weird

9:57 am

BzznBea

Both t

9:57 am

welki

9:57 am
