Do we have a new Crew member?
Or did He/She run for their lives?She didn't run for her life:) Happy to sign up for pings to the grand ox Crew, or Crewe, which I'd prefer, in honor of my very interesting grand-mère who lived in NOLA. God rest her soul.
But I thought I bought a ticket to ride to Nome, not NOLA, didn't I?

I shall add you to a ping list, but as I said, it is very low volume.

I am officially blaming the slow down on the two listed above. They might not have done it but am going to blame someone. Take a bow ... Moose and Darksheare ... your fault ... LOL

Moose, if Veto! isn’t holding the witches cabin key ... Darksheare has it. Your task Moose is to secure the witches cabin key. I have done all I can.
