And a bonus tidbit that my American friends will get a charge out of... Because it is said so often, "sorry" is legally not an admission of guilt under the eyes of the law in many provinces. sorry about that:))

7:37 am
Scrabbler

We are going to the County Forest--not a virgin forest, but most of the trees were planted in the 1920's by the CCC. We will hike for an hour to a cabin where we will rest and make a fire in the wood stove.
7:37 am

Sounds perfect
7:38 am

7:39 am

Up north when snowmobiling all day we used to pack cherry whiskey in thos supple wineskins because it was the only thing that would not freeze solid in minus 40 temps

a really good way to diet is to keep out of the PB
7:44 am
Scrabbler

Crossy, we can play via FB. I usually have a couple dozen games going, with many Babblers.
7:44 am
Scrabbler

Yes, jwr.
7:44 am
crosshair

I always said(and even proposed to jesse) that in addition to the daily grid, there should be a 10x10 weekly grid of 1000-5000 words

I usually keep my thermostat set at 65 but last evening the outdoor temp dropped to minus 2 so I increased the indoor temp to 67.
8:05 am

I like it about 65 as well. I get almost a claustrophobic feeling if it is too warm and stuff in the house
8:05 am
pippingeek

ouch, that is cold. it's 18 here but that's enough to throw off our heat situation
8:07 am
jmcnrick

Grrrrr. My computer decided it was time to update.
8:08 am
pippingeek

i will say, on a tiny grid like this it is super satisfying to find even one word
8:08 am

I always keep auto update disabled. I like to pick and choose between critical updates and crapola
8:08 am

especially when it greys out a tile

10:07 am
doseffing

... had a pair of them living in the bushes at the bottom of the back yard ... huge things ... looked like they could take on a small car
10:08 am
jmcnrick

my sister used have a problem with getting garbage from one side of her house and then marching across the tin roof. . . clank, clank, clank. . . to wash it in the dog water bowl on the other side of the house. . .
10:08 am
jmcnrick

they may be cute to some but they are dangerous animals when cornered. . .
10:08 am
doseffing

... I wouldn't take one on
10:09 am
jmcnrick

my sister finally moved the dog water bowl next to the garbage so she could get some sleep. . . hahah
10:09 am

so funny to watch them washing it, though, little hands going just like us, scrubbing away
10:10 am
jmcnrick

yes . . . it is cute. . . from a distance :)
10:11 am
rbud

we had a mom and several little ones this last year, but they disappeared before winter, not sure what became of them. maybe the local coyotes.
10:12 am
rbud

I often fear for the cats I feed, the ones who won't set foot inside. lots of coyote caterwauling off in the woods.
10:13 am

... cats will climb a tree ... not coyotes
10:13 am
rbud

plus we have foxes, too.
10:14 am

12:21 pm
jmcnrick

there hasn't been much happening on the beaches in the south (where we are going) and the worst is not focused on tourists at any rate. . .
12:21 pm
rururocks

tell that to all the dead tourists
12:25 pm
jmcnrick

double checked the dead mexican tourists and generally it was accidents and only about one a month last year. . . we probably have more than that in the US each year. . .
12:26 pm

but thank you for the sentiment. . . i am a cautious traveler . . .

MollyL

Not sure. People often say they will be "working" to justify a lush vacation. I' am always happier to hear that someone is getting away to somewhere nice just to relax and have fun.
1:21 pm
rururocks

when you work for yourself.. it's really hard to "take" vacations and not work.. I kind of get that
1:23 pm
MollyL

Still, sad to think of someone getting the chance for a lavish vacation and having to work through it. Kind of defeats the purpose of a vacation.
