Joy, I looked it up - asphalt
you learn something new every day, I guess, but I didn't particularly want to learn a new word for asphalt
and so called because of where it is found.
LOL
aww joy, go on. you know you love new words. let's see where you could use it.....
you could use it to discuss knowledgeably with the guy laying down the black stuff while you wait your turn to use the road. there ....isn't that a terrific conversation starter?
well would you look at that? it is found in a mountain chain in northeastern utah, extending slightly into southern wyoming. aren't y'all glad i looked it up?
I'll remember that next time they're fixing the street, which should be tomorrow, since there always seems to be something they're digging up.
is there more than one KN word?
nope
Well, that was too easy! Never mind, I've got lots to do today. tI's my Mum's 87th birthday.
wow ! Jackie. please say happy birthday from me...like she knows me, not. but i wish her all the very best anyway. xx
thanks granny. I always struggle with the K words
sheesh. that woman moves like the gresy lightning.

Yay, the red bars of doom are gone.

Hi IG. I woke up early.
I always do - how's the weather there?
25% chance of rain today but I will hike. My sister arrived from NJ yesterday. We are doing a 3-day backpacking trip next week.
80+ degrees next week.
are you near the Finger Lakes? - I've been there and its beautiful
35 miles southeast of Buffalo. We backpacked in the Finger Lakes 2 weeks ago.
Wow - Great place to live
But the Adirondack Mtns are my favorite playground. We will be doing 3 backpacking trips there in the summer, thus we are training.
You are inspiring me to get my butt moving!
Yes, get in the woods.
I hiked the App. trail and climbed Mt Katahdin long ago
In Maine
Wow! The entire AT? I have hiked through Shenandoah NP.
Not the entire Trail - Just a couple of days
Fun.
Great blueberrys
I love hiking in August and finding blueberries. Hopkins Mtn is covered with blueberry bushes.
Thats right It was in August
did a lot of hiking in the Rockies when I lived in Colorado. Gotta go back
I have not hiked in the Rockies, but I have hiked in Bryce, Zion, and the Grand Canyon.
what?! No Himalayas !
No, I have no interest in going there. A mountain littered with bodies must be avoided.
smart. Just kidding btw
Haha, oops ha4
Geez, I am having trouble getting to halfway.
I can't even get started LOL LOL
Dive in.
fW for me
Yay!
belly flop scrabb
LOL knocked off the Ds LOL
*putting ice on Leona's abdomen*
going for the high dive
Scrab, you helped me get the UI 8 from an earlier post about hiking
I have heard of the Ui5 Mtns but not ui8
builds off them (never heard this word)
Well, I passed halfway so I am content for the day. See you tomorrow.
Bye
italiangreyhound...I see you're from Ft. Worth. My sis-in-laws live in Denton. They're coming to visit today. Rainy drive for them!
hi, Champ - No rain here right now. radar looks worse to the SE
It feels like it's never going to end! Annoyed for my dogs. They're bored.
you've had it bad! we have had 2 days of no rain in DFW-just humidity
The mosquitos are loving it!
BBL for my last 30. Enjoy!
*Marks Champ down for 30 left
HI ALL. Need clue for the Ui word please. Details appreciated. I just dont see it. Or is it a word i dont know?
Also need clue for the 8 please. Ty. With stats.
the Ui is based on a mnt range in Utah
Must look it up. Ty Italian.
I only see wasatch. Is that it? Dont see the w or s in grid.
Not getting it at all italian.
Any other clues for ui 7?
It is a word you don't know. Try morewords
And it's ui8
Ty molly
Got it. I dont think anyone knows that one. Have to go to more words. Ty
Need some more clues. The H word bottom corner H please. Stat and clue.
It's a kind of asphalt. I have been in construction for over 20 years and I've never heard of it.
Ooops just got it. So sorry. Didnt see last letter. Apologies.
Ty molly.
inter inro
maybe you need something concrete molly?
I'd imagine that ui 8 is now cemented in your memory
it might pave the way to finding it in the future though
🤣I love how you just keep going and no one's mixing in
ruru is just rock solid
my bad jokes are often a tarring experience
well, I took molly's advice and just looked it up. never would have found that
i got the ui8
i've never seen a ui word before ever.. Broll says it was in a grid, but I think it was before my time
i dont recall seeing one before
there's only 9 total per my lookup website
there's a 9/10 set that is this 8 + an H stuck in the middle. just in case we ever have that I thought you might want to know.
looks like it might be more of an additive, coating, or sealant as opposed to concrete or cement
corner h stats pls?
ha4
laughing at myself on that one
hehe
hoho
i was trying to make it more complicated and i didnt look at chat until i just foundi it
well at least you got a laugh out of it mlf
oh a little
any unusual ha 4s in the grid?
one babblet
there's a 4/8 that we get occasionally
ty hokie looking
it should come from the right h but not getting it
Do you have Mr. Aaron, the baseball player?
yes
the ha4.8 uses the 4 point tile.

Tx Bea
well, I managed to get at least half on each tile. 42 left for lunchtime.

good morning everyone

agree mool
hi mool
hi cyber
hi une
AT 6 clue pls?
ends with a canvas shelter
i almost always forget that word ty cyber
finally figured how to clue the Ui 8. anyone want it?
i got it from morewords
I don't need it but I'd be interested to see how you clue it.
don't need it, but lets hear it :)
La Qu---- Inn + mineral ending
works for those who are familiar with the Coachella valley I guess
don't know if they have those inns in your countries tho
I'd have to plead ignorance on the Inn reference.
or is that a motel chain in the states?
Qu: a 5 letter word for fifth = mineral ending ?
That would be more internationally friendly.
yeah those inns are only in the USA I Guess
yes - remember seeing signs for them now. It is also a town near Palm Desert. Our equivalent would be the Courtyard Inns
break time -- still habe both e's blank
just the top one now
Probably the best way to clue the ui8 is with the definition. It comes right up on a Google search
There actually are some La Q---- hotels in Canada. Just not where you are Nan. They are part of the Wyndham chain.
ar5 clue pls?
never mind
stats for top e please?
I have a volcano
ty amelu - often miss that oen
How is "afro" not a word? Don't the people who wrote the ENABLE dictionary have hair?

Can't Deny It by Fabolous feat. Nate Dogg
I have all but one a...and no an6...so I guess there's only one if there's one

Pen, your computer is messed up
i refreshed and it seems fine now...
Am a zombie from staying up most of nite with sick dog
2-3-1-1-1
I hear your sick dog, and raise you an early sprinkler at 4am
hopefully the dog is doing better
i raise you a purring cat before 6am waking my husband up and then about 3 hrs later running on the bed iike a maniac and running off again.. was almost 9am before i got up
oh and scratching on the wall of the shower two different times
Tx moolingwa..... she's at vet getting meds and IV fluids :-)
hopefully will be back home soon
back in a bit. Hubby in hospital and it is a full time job keeping family informed as to what is going on.
in6 clue pls/
well it'll take some effort to move that off your list ML
ok
looking..
Here is one I'm surprised we haven't seen. Given that Enable is partial to weird Welsh words...HWYL - A melodic chanting style of Welsh preaching. Keep that in your brain for Scrabble.
in 6: headway as in making in6s
ui 8 clue?
clued earlier as La QU**** Inn plus mineral ending
u + you go through the ****ke process when admitted to the hospital + mineral ending....
tx pen, had tried the first part...but didn't think to try and mineralise it
wow, thx pen, would never have got that
yw...
So it is a rocky road to get into the hospital?
only if you're stoned
no asphalt of mine!
*spoken with a gravelly voice*
Oh dear. What have I started. I am sorry for casting the first stone.
or6 please?
Mrs wht has just come home from work so I am off for a late lunch.
fancy...
or 6....fancy...elaborately decorated...
I never thought I would see the day that Pen clued with **** *Faints*
well you try clueing that word, lol.....i had no knowlege of any QU Inn....
You clue it with the definition., It comes right up in a Google search.
well i figure if someone knew the definition, they would not need the clue...
you have to use your brain to figure out a clue....you use your fingers and keyboard to do a Google search....
would Dr. Qu** medicine woman + British thanks + mineral ending work better?
besides....i did not hear the clue seeker complain... ;o)
still uses ** ....
I much prefer *** clues to those that say re + sa 4.....that is four out of six letters given...
wasn't there a starwars character named ta 5/18?
don't know.....i have three ta 6/18 words and don't recognize any character, but i am not a Star Wars fanatic...
not 6/18 --- 5/18
guess i don't have that one yet....
found ta 5/16....
I think he might have been another Vulcan
ah....Star Trek....
got it...does sound like a Vulcan name...
oh, lol - was that star trek? Get them confused
Tuvok was a character in a ST series....Voyager...
ok
*!*~*!* tough grid for me
congrats....still have 20 here....tough grid for me, too....
ah, but I don't think you use the list do you? I listed when I got down to 40
with all the phone calls in and out, I just couldn't remember what I had done.
haven't listed yet, but I usually end up listing in order to finish....
hagd everyone :)
bye, nan....
heading out...bbl to finish...bye all....
still 6 to go
nothing like the feeling of settling down to babble
I can think of a few better things : D
i didn't say there was nothing better, i said there was nothing like it. Ã la ham sandwiches and hay.
In literal truth, there is nothing else like it. Although I don't associate a "feeling" with settling down to play this game. Again, literal truth.
well at the moment, with teaching, i get home and it's the feeling of ahhhh, i'm done with that and can now relax and unwind
esp on a friday!
I get it. I have that same feeling with a shot of Jameson on my patio after work.
trying to find the U word here is not as good of a feeling
I wouldn't spend a lot of time trying to find it without help. It is an impossible word.
mk, clue please then :)
u + not out + Brit bye + mneral ending
Or mineral
uh, wow, yeah
i wonder if the inventor of that word was drunk at the time
It is some kind of high grade asphalt. The Enable nerds shot their wad including that one.
My grid does not have 17 TA words..ðŸ˜
The asphalt is named after the formation where it is found in Utah, and the formation is named after a mountain there.
aha
how very knowledgable of you, Gillie
Really
I just looked it up - I thought it was probably something like that
we're having a Sudden Intense Downpour
with thunder and everything
kind of exciting when you're safe and dry inside :D
I had that nearly two hours ago, hurshy. It was certainly intense!
Yes, it makes you feel especially cozy!
Unfortunately I was still driving home from my mother's when it began. Got home to find my kitten jsut about freaking out
sometimes the rain falls to earth but this is more like bullets being shot at the ground
oh, poor kitten
She is cozily purring on my lap now
that's not as bad as what happened to my poor cats a month or two ago
And that was.....?
the fire alarm went off for no reason while i was out, i got home to it going off. and i have no idea how long it had been going on. can you imagine having to deal with that loud, awful noise, for who knows how long, and not be able to do anything about it? and their hearing of course is more sensitive than ours!
Horror!
i was appalled
i even called the vet to ask if i should be concerned about their hearing or anything
They are remarkably resilient though, poor kitties
i have the D word that means like dark and damp, anyone got the other one?
nope, i have that one too.
dh4
thanks Gillie
yw
dh4/10. weird one
i've gotten used to dhole, dhoti, and dhuti, but not that one
oh. I see I should have checked before cluing. sorry
no biggie
hurshy do you do the TImes Spelling Bee regularly? I saw once you made reference to it
i only find a few, cause then they stop you if you don't have a subscription
i'm not sufficiently stably employed to subscribe
a few words a day, but regularly, yes
Ah. I've subscribed to that paper since I was 19. WHen I saw I needed to pay more for it I appealed to them on account of my longevity, so they gave it to me. It is my current obsession
nice :)
did you get a pangram yesterday? if i am remembering my days right, i don't think i did
I've been taking snapshots and sending to a few friends. If you like, we can figure out a way for me to send ton you
well i can see them and get a few words, so i am not sure how a screenshot would help?
NO! First time in all these months I've been doing it. Got to genius, but no pangram, It was ridiculous telekinetic. I did give up early since I was at my daughter's last night and she took up all my attention
Ok. Okay. as long as you see them daily. Cool
ahh i should have gotten that
yes, me too. But I'm not going to lose sleep over it
yeah, i only lose sleep due to my depression, not due to non-finding of pangrams...
Sorry. I lose sleep due to my crazy brain, life long insomniac. My grandson seems to have inherited the curse. I got him a weighted blanket for Christmukah and he says it helps a lot. Not for me
yeah i haven't found it makes much of a difference for me
sun came out!
found pangram!
Hi all! We celebrate Christmukah too!
evening! stats for the U, anybody?
ui8/45...have fun with that
Yes that is an eye after the U
wowsers
30 left - definitely had to look that one up
Only the word geniuses could use their magic fingers to find that one.
hello....can anyone tell me if in 7 is an ordinary word?
Yes it's a familiar word to me, though not one I use often.
Good morning all
ok, thanks....
Compound -ish
good morning to you, too....
ko5?
ko 5 ends with a rodent
thanks Lizlin! 5 left, 1 in each tile in column 2
2 left here - an r6 and a t6
re6/18 and te6/18 - both causing me far more trouble than I think they should be causing.
en5,18, anyone?
one is a bit twisty....
the re6 will catch your eye eventually
en 5/18 is a mushroom
Thanks - really thought I'd entered that - but it's been in the grid a few times recently.
argh...I just bought 2 packages of those mushrooms the other day!
ty liz
:)
Fireworks.
the mushroom was my last - thanks Lizlin and Molly and lickety and all cluers
congrats, dan...
Congrats.
Thanks to Lickety and all cluers - and definitely morewords for that ui8 word!
Can I help with any clues before I go?
can't find the in 8...
sorry...in 7
There isn't an in8
in 7 - is when an object is at rest
It builds from the in 5 before it
thought i had tried all possible endings for the 5, but I will try again....thanks!
one more?...the te 7?
duh....found the in 7....was looking in the wrong direction....
thinking about how to clue that te 7
The last 3 letters are a man's name
It's pretty twisty
First 3 letters of the bird before it + consonant + man's name
Sorry for the very clumsy clue
no problem...i will figure it out....thanks again....that is my last word...
The man's name is Fleming,the writer
OK - well I'm sure you'll get it. Congrats in advance :)
Thanks for the help Molly - couldn't think how to do it!
found it....ty....
Congrats - have a good day / evening everyone
and ty, mollly, too.... i am done...
heading out...goodnight all....
Weird, Babble type word. Refers to a fever and a Jesuit priest. Yee Gods.
done, yay - last word tr 5/18, ends with a tree. New one for me.
Fw!!
