Hiking through Rocky Mountain National Park, Larkin, Clare and I listened to the banter of a group of boys--most likely campers--playing a word game. I'd forgotten about the game until I listened to them debate whether flan was a word, and then the rules for the game came back to me. You had to go around in a circle adding letters, always with a word in mind, but whoever completed a word would be out. Larkin, Clare and I started our own game, agreeing that the first one of us to complete the word horse would be the loser.
As we came upon a mountain lake, two men were taking a picture of themselves. I was struggling with how I was going to deal with the fact that I was facing L-U-N-A. (We agreed that luna seemed too foreign and we didn't have wifi to check whether to allow it or not. I was happy to be playing a game, and I didn't protest much...) I offered to take the picture, and I laughingly told them I needed a letter to continue the game--the only word I could think of was lunar.
They didn't seem to be contemplating my issue too hard; they were much more interested in the scenery and the photo. They even offered to take our picture as I kept winding my way through the alphabet in search of a word other than lunar. They took a great picture--one of my favorites-- and as they headed away from us, one of the men turned around.
"Lunatic," he said.
LUNATIC!
Larkin would up with the next letter as we continued along our hike.
I have since played this game with many different combinations of people, and it's great for spelling as well as vocabulary development. It's even great for a laugh!
Happy Slicing!
You had me at word game! I have great memories of hours in the car on road trips playing all sorts of variations of word games. This would have been a good one to add to our repertoire! One of our favorites was picking a category (ex: animals) and then the person going said a word that fit the category (ex: cat) and the next person had to name something in the category that began with the last letter of that word (an animal beginning with t). We developed quite a list of animals beginning with "e"!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun game! Sounds like you and the girls had a great adventure!
ReplyDeleteGoing through a divorce case is very heart broken when you love your partner with the whole of your heart.. My husband left me for a total stranger and I could not imagine what the hell was happening because everything looks like a dream to me. I was lost and confused about my life without any way to get a solution to make my husband see reasons with me that I love him so much. I was very depressed and desperate to win back my husband and I searched on GOOGLE for help about my situation and I got recommended to Lord Zakuza who is a powerful spell caster for he has so many magnificent testimonies and reviews on the internet from different people all over the world. I got in touch with him and I poured out my sorrowful heart to him and he encouraged and promised to help me out. He gave me some instructions of which a adhered to and within 48 hours of contacting Lord Zakuza my attorney called me to get me informed that the divorce case has been cancelled and I got a call from my husband 30 minutes after I finished speaking to my attorney. My husband and I are so much in Love with endless care and happiness and I so much thank Lord Zakuza for doing this for me and I know people out there might also need their partner or lovers back or want to get pregnant for your partner or husband. You can Text & WhatsApp Lord Zakuza on +1 740-573-9483 or email him via: ( Lordzakuza7@gmail.com ) for a change of story in your love life..

ReplyDeleteFor many years, my husband and I struggled with the pain of not being able to have a child. We tried many treatments and prayed for a miracle, but nothing worked. When I heard about Dr. Alaska, I decided to reach out with faith. After following the spiritual guidance he gave us, the unbelievable happened I finally became pregnant. Today, we are blessed with a beautiful baby, and our home is filled with happiness. Another amazing blessing came when Dr. Alaska shared lucky numbers with my husband to try in a lottery game. My husband decided to play them, and to our surprise, he won a huge amount of money. It felt like our lives changed completely in the most wonderful way. I reached him on WhatsApp: +233277283626, but if you don’t have WhatsApp you can also email him via alaskaspellcaster44@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteIt all started when I was at my lowest point, tired of trying my luck and getting nothing in return. The lottery had become more of a disappointment than a dream, and I was ready to walk away from it completely. Then I heard about Dr. Alaska through someone who claimed their life changed after contacting him. I didn’t believe it at first, but curiosity got the better of me. When I finally reached out, he spoke calmly and confidently, explaining that sometimes it’s not just about luck, but about removing the blocks holding you back. I followed his guidance step by step, even though part of me still had doubts. A few days later, I decided to give the lottery one more try using the direction he gave me. When the results came out, I was frozen in disbelief I had actually won $16.8 million. That moment changed everything for me. It wasn’t just about the money, but about realizing that sometimes taking a chance on something new can open doors you never imagined. If you’re feeling stuck and need a breakthrough, you can reach Dr. Alaska through email: alaskaspellcaster44@gmail.com or WhatsApp: +233277283626.
ReplyDeleteThere was a time I thought my marriage was over for good. A third party had completely taken over my wife’s attention, and no matter how much I tried to fix things, nothing worked. I felt helpless, frustrated, and deeply hurt watching someone else come between us. It got to a point where I almost gave up, but something pushed me to seek help and that’s when I found Dr. Alaska. What made him different was how he truly understood my pain. He didn’t judge me or rush me; instead, he patiently listened and guided me step by step. He explained everything in a way that gave me hope again. I followed his instructions with faith, even when things seemed impossible. Slowly but surely, I began to notice changes. My wife started reaching out again, her attitude softened, and the connection we lost began to rebuild. Today, I can proudly say my wife is back home, our love is restored, and the third party is no longer part of our lives. If you’re going through something similar and feel like no one understands your pain, I promise you there is still hope. You can reach Dr. Alaska on WhatsApp: +233277283626, email: alaskaspellcaster44@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI went through a very painful breakup with my boyfriend. We stopped talking, and he even blocked me on all social media. I was heartbroken and didn’t know what to do, so I started searching online for help. That’s when I came across several testimonies about Dr. Dawn and how he had helped people reunite broken relationships and marriages, as well as helped women conceive through his guidance.
ReplyDeleteAt first, I was unsure, but I decided to reach out to him. When we spoke, he told me things about myself and my relationship that were surprisingly accurate. He then guided me on what I should do.
To my surprise, within 48 hours, my boyfriend—who had completely cut me off—started calling me and sending me many messages, apologizing and asking for forgiveness. I forgave him, and we got back together.
Not only that, but with his support and guidance, we are now blessed with two beautiful children.
I am truly grateful for everything, and I strongly recommend Dr. Dawn to anyone going through relationship, marriage, or fertility challenges.

You can get your ex back and cure your infertility problems with Dr Reethesh. When I met Dr Reethesh, my husband had divorced me because I was a barren woman at 32 years of age and I have been married for five years. I went to many hospitals and all the doctors I met were telling me that i'll not be able to give birth again. The doctors were telling me that I am affected with Chlamydia, Gonorrhea and Uterine Fibroids. They were advising me to go for child adoption. I was devastated and confused as a woman of my age. I went online to look for help on how to get my marriage back then I met Dr Reethesh. Within a few weeks of contacting Dr Reethesh, my ex husband came back home and pleaded for me to forgive him and take him back after six months of divorce. I accepted him back and then I told Dr Reethesh of my bareness for him to help me. He did the spell for fertility. I took the herbs he sent to me. And after some months of finishing the herbs, I conceived. My husband got me pregnant and I gave birth to a handsome son. Presently, I am a mother of a handsome son and I am happy in my marriage. All thanks to Dr Reethesh and his wonderful work. Contact Dr Reethesh Via WhatsApp: +2349012999010 OR Email: reethesh60@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteHow Dr Wale made life easy for me. I was in love with my high school girlfriend. We grew up together with strong love and sweet understanding. We were living peacefully together with ourselves. But here is how things started going wild for us. My woman works in a different city far away from me, So the best way of getting in touch is through communicating on the phone. But after five months, Our communication started slowing down. Whenever I call her she'll say she's busy and that she'll call me back when she's done with everything. That day will finish without her calling back, It's continue for months till I decide to pay her a surprise visit in the city where she works. After some few days with her I found out that my woman has been having an affair with his boss in the office. When I tried to question her about it, She told me that she was done with me and she doesn't want us to continue anymore. Those words broke my heart into pieces to the point that I almost took my life. Before going to my city she blocked me on all her social media handles. I went back to my city with deep pain inside of me, I was depressed and felt betrayed by her actions. After some months still living in pain and bitterness I told a friend of mine about the issues, My friend told me he'II introduced me to Dr Wale he said that Dr Wale is the only man that can bring back my happiness. He said to me his marriage is perfect today with the help of Dr Wale. When I reached out to Dr Wale and told him everything that was going on he told me to be calm and that I'II be a happy man again. Dr Wale instructed me to make payment for Items needed. The magic started when my woman gave me a call two days later crying on the phone begging me to please have mercy on her. She said she doesn't know what came over her that made her behave badly. We're now back together living happily again like we used to before. I wanna give all thanks to Dr Wale for making everything possible and for bringing my woman back to me. If you need any kind of help Dr Wale is the right man to contact.
