rbud

My son was initially unexcited about getting up and checking it out (night owl, late riser). But when I left him alone for a few, he bounced up and went to find his dad's telescope, which came with a bunch of interchangeable eyepieces, and there's one labeled for sun. His girlfriend and our grandson came out then and we all enjoyed the experience, though we only got about 95% here.

9:32 am

rbud

I was out there showing off my skills at poking a hole in a paper plate and viewing it on another paper plate. Old school, haha! :D

9:36 am

MollyL

It's five hours from here to Erie. It took a co-worker 10 hours to get home. I imagine there are more stories like that.

9:36 am

mael

oh absolutely. the traffic was insane, it took people 10 hours to get back to MA from VT. We stayed up there and left early this morning

9:40 am

MollyL

You did the smart thing. It was suggested that people wait until today to travel home.

9:56 am

rbud

yay, finally ran across the tr4 resin word you mentioned, Molly, it was gently bothering me.

11:11 am

mael

hurshy

11:43 am

hurshy

the others are el5/12 babblet and plural

11:43 am

MollyL

The other two are the resin words I mentioned earlier. Apparently that gently bothered someone.

11:44 am

hurshy

who did it bother?

11:45 am

mkg

Just not seeing these el words. Wow. I must be blocked. And why would resin words bother someone?

11:46 am

hurshy

not me... i asked what words you were referring to because i did not know that that is what those were... but that didn't mean i was bothered, just uninformed

11:49 am

MollyL

No, it wasn't you

11:57 am

hurshy

you know who this grid makes me think of

11:57 am

12:32 pm

penquis

guess so...

12:36 pm

penquis

well i have stalled at 15....time for a break....bye all....

1:01 pm

rbud

apparently my use of the phrase "gently bothered" *actually* bothered someone else... all I meant was that it made me curious enough to read definitions of words I found until I came across it. Was not familiar with the word(s)

It *did* bother me that there was no hint attached to the mention, so hey, here we go - el5/12 and pl.

1:04 pm

rbud

now I have fw, so I'll *poof* so my comments can be easily ignored as they were last two times. Laters, all! ♥
