HarryHood

hi scrab. Looks like some cardiac thing. I hope he makes a full recovery

6:15 am

He had immediate CPR and return of pulse, so that is a bit hopeful for his brain.

6:16 am

HarryHood

Hope to hear good news. Was a crazy night!

6:16 am

Scrabbler

It was a frightening event, so traumatic for all witnesses.

9:11 am

hokie carla

9:13 am

rururocks

IT WAs my last word last night

9:15 am

hokie carla

PH4 at the flip? or tuatara from yesterday?

9:16 am

hokie carla

9:18 am

rururocks

ph at the flip

9:18 am

rururocks

took me 10 minutes on my iphone

9:19 am

rururocks

that word held me up a bit.. made it hard to find the other p's too

9:20 am

hokie carla

well, I got some P's from the chat or I would've been held up much longer

9:22 am

rururocks

i saw the pe 8 but it took me a loooong time to find it

9:24 am

hokie carla

sometimes I get lucky just trying stuff that looks like it might be a word, but in general I don't see words that I don't know or use.

9:26 am

rururocks

I'm off to work.. have a good day hokie

9:26 am

hokie carla

hokie carla

yeah, pre-covid I had season passes (it's only a couple of hours from Charlotte) and my friend & I always did a couple of girls trips. decided to go ahead and get them again since we live fairly close now. in spring and summer we can take our bikes up and ride around the grounds on the trails and stuff.

9:52 am

hokie carla

next year I will do the candelight christmas. I don't think I've ever done that, only seen it in the day.
