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

Brrrr. I know what a pogonip is: an ice fog. It was in a Louis L’Amour story.
Good morning, everyone. Happy Monday!
Happy Hanukkah for those celebrating.
If we make it through today it will be 8 weeks since our Princess’ last seizure. We’re already in a new local maximum.
All that snow we got Friday and Saturday fell when the temps were slightly above freezing, so the roads were never bad. We got a little more accumulation on the grass. We’re expecting a big snow storm Christmas Eve.
Yesterday my 3s actually caught up with my 5s. However, today the 5s edged back into the lead. If I had left my typo in Word 4 instead of correcting it I would have had a 4 today. Go figger.

Good news about Princess Dog! *happy dance*
So many words to choose from. LOL! I hate when I do critical stuff on the Wordle. The game is just so unforgiving.
It is unforgiving. I’ve decided to give up on wanting its forgiveness.
I wouldn’t even bother to go incognito to guess if I’m at my 6th try except I want to guess the word and not be told - no matter how many tries it takes.
Indeed!
How did I miss that sweet floof??
Good morning.
Did you have a good night?
I went to take a nap and got about an hour’s worth before I got a text from one of the neighbors, asking me if I had gotten the gift that was left for me. (You mean the one that was sitting on the table in “my” spot? The one with my name on it?) Yes, I got it, thanks for Reville.
So now, I’m going to go hang clothes and then come back in here and get Christmas cards ready to go out. *face palm* I can’t believe I’ve put it off so long.

Good Monday Morn!
A rainy, dreary version today, until it dries out and the temps plunge later in the week... currently, our overnight lows forecast for Thursday to Sunday are: 13, 20, 20, and 27 F. Then, back above freezing...
Another four train ride on the Wordle front to start the week... could have been much worse!

Whoa! Good job!
Great! (Oh, that’s reserved for the Fivers, isn’t it?)

12Β° low ceiling, clear view of Peavine, no pogonip.
I wish I didn’t have a clear view...some things are just not worth looking at, no matter how far away they are!
Afternoon! I went to physical therapy, and we have some extra children over today through Monday. I took everyone to Walmart and then made cookies for the Cub Scouts party tonight. I do not particularly want to go to the Cub Scouts party, but our den (the 5th graders) is running it, and I’m in charge of the games, so there you go.
