Did this one as a mystery! Ugh! - What a past few days - dog had to go to the vet - hubby had minor surgery. Both are home and he's on pain meds. The home nurse was here twice. She's taken off his bandage and the site is purple. He says that's normal.
That's the correct spelling, animal. I have a story about that word. It was part od a spelling contest. ONe student picked a word and we each got a turn to guess the spelling. We had it narrowed down to all but the "e" which I did a toss up in my mind on my turn (soundwise it could have been a, u or e) and guessed e and won. Another girl who had not been called on yet would have guessed that, too and accused me of stealing it from her. That I had looked at her answer and given it but I got it on my own. She was supposed to have been a genius so I guess she thought she was the only one who could get it right.

Thanks. Love the story. Congrats for getting it right. I am almost the worlds worst speller and guessed at that spelling. I am glad I got it right. Sorry for the late reply but just got back from a 2 week vacation late last night and just got time to check my chromebook and do a few puzzles I have definitely missed doing. I was at my Uncle and Aunts house in Idaho and they have no internet so I kept my Chromebook at home. I now have LOTS of fun puzzles to catch up on.

Hi animalvr: They must be in the mountainous area. I saw there was no cell phone coverage there. We plan to visit idaho & Yellowstone this summer. How do you like visiting and how long have your aunt/uncle been there?

My mother and Uncle were born on the farm in Nezperce Idaho. It is a little town of 437 people. My Uncles farm is 13 miles North of the town. Nezperce is about 40 miles from Lewiston which is the closest big town. It had around 35, 000 people. I just love being in their rush hour traffic. I think it is a big joke since I lice in Torrance, CA just south of Los Angeles where every town runs together with over 3 million people. Look at a map and find the state line between Oregon and Washington and follow it East just across the Clearwater River to Idaho and there is Clarkston on the Washington side of the river and Lewiston on the Idaho side, Yes, they were named for Lewis and Clark and Sacajawea, the explorers. Yellowstone is wonderful. We have been there many summers and snowmobiling with my Aunt and Uncle once after I was married. My Aunt and Uncle have over 2000 tillable acres of farmland in wheat, peas, barley, and blue grass seed. I have a small 200 acre farm I inherited which I rent out. I wish you a wonderful trip. It is so beautiful and quiet up there.

The farm is up on the prairie where it is fairly flat but all roads leading to and from and around are curvy mountain roads. Really fun to drive.

That's my brother's specialty. The twistier the road the better he likes it.
