EV runs out of juice, pushed by coal miners
DC tourist ran out of battery in the middle of a remote West Virginia road on Friday, near a coal mine on Mettiki Coal access road U.S. 48, a few miles outside of Davis, according to WTRF.
From FaceBook:
Randy Smith on Friday Some days are just better than others. Today at our mine off Corridor H an electric car from DC ran out of battery at the road entrance to the mine. Someone called one of our foreman and told him a car was broke down in the middle of our haul road. He went to investigate and found out they had indeed ran out of juice coming from DC to Davis for a get away weekend. He then went back to the mine and got guys to push the car to the guard shack so they could plug in to charge. ... See more


Looks like my Gracie when I found her on my porch ...
What a sweet little face!
Good morning. I hope you slept well, without a cat.
I could have used a few more hours of sleep, but it ain’t happenin’.
Did the tent get dried out?
Good morning. This little darling lives in Sweden.
Good morning. Not too bad, no cat. Yes, the tent got dried.
This one had so many “answers” it was hard to choose. Unngh.

Not a good start to the day, for sure. Strug-ul!
How is your sciatica? Did it bother you on this campout?
It did not bother me on the campout until Sunday morning, when I was sitting on the floor of the tent waiting for a break in the rain so I could start packing out the gear.
There’s some discomfort now, even after the PT yesterday. He gave me more exercises. The lesson, I suppose, it that I need to be stronger if I’m going to do a lot of camping activities!
Good morning. Happy Twosday!
I’ll be off to vote in a bit. I’m going to let those who work today get out of the way first.
It’s back to being cold outside. I don’t know if this is the last warm spell or if we’re expecting more.
Considering that I had learned only 1 letter and 2 places it couldn’t be by my 3rd guess, I have no answer for how I got this in 4.

6/6 is better than X/6.
Indeed, it is!! But I would have kept going because.
Good job on the puzzle!
Happy Trash Day! I’ll walk over to the elementary school to vote after Weight Watchers.
Good Election Day Morn!
Will be getting out to vote at some point this morning... after the first and second rows, it is almost cruel that it took so many more... just a lot of possibles with that layout...

Good morning, all! I hope everyone is feeling well today.
I voted Friday morning. It was a decent crowd, but I got a booth right away. And I got one of those “I Voted” stickers.
Hoping and praying that the results reflect the true will of the people all around the nation today.
Did another five. If it weren’t for part letter elimination and part luck, I might have bombed it. As y’all said, too many possibilities.

Indeed!

Ah. Sitting on the floor is not a good position for the sciatic nerves. I’m so sorry!
Are the exercises different from what he has given you in the past? I hope they are helping, at any rate.
Excellent job on the Four-by!
I didn’t register to vote here and I’m not sure why. It’s the first election I haven’t voted in in 10 years or more.
Good job!
You only had one more word, so you could have gotten it, even at six!
Yeah, I was too far down the food chain to try any more. I’m glad it showed up when it did.
I’m really wishing I could go back to bed for a little nap, but that’s not going to happen. I’ll just have to try and suck it up until bedtime! ;o]
I have some of the same exercises, new ones from last week, and more new ones from yesterday. Keeps me busy!
Frank and Kathleen and I just walked to the poll at the elementary school, where I voted and they chatted up the campaign volunteers.
I’m guessing he wouldn’t be adding more if he didn’t think you’re improving with the ones he’s already given you. “It all counts on twenty,” I guess.
PW just landed in Denver with a four-hour layover, so it will be 2100 before she sees her family tonight. I don’t know if her dad knows or not because I’m not in The Loop.
