Spidey alert!

magpie said...

Days Inn, that is where Deb stayed last year.

Not far from me, but I am all hemmed in with work both Sat and Sun...no breakfast dates possible.
Cracker Barrel is nearby, Shoney's, and Bob Evans....

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I think you need to quit that job! :)

magpie said...

Well, that would be nice...
21-1/2 years in...in April my age and years of service equals 80 - that is when one can consider retiring...but I doubt if I can afford it :(

so, I play the Powerball every once in awhile. ☺

magpie said...

Okay, tubby I said, and tubby it is:

If I miss any early roosters, well, Good Night to you, and I'll catch a few more before I roost.

deb said...

The Day's Inn was not the nicest place ever, the room was okay, but the hallway was kind of scary. Of course, I was alone and Sissy won't be.
Lot's of construction workers hanging in the halls and smoking.

hedgie said...

Wow, Margy, ours was 85 pts.!! I would have been there 5 mos. after I was diagnosed....glad it worked out because I make a lot more on disability retirement!!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Smoking in the hallway -- Sissy will not be happy about that!

deb said...

I don't think they were supposed to be smoking. Of course, I am sure those guys won't still be there!

deb said...

I hope they moved on, anyway.

hedgie said...

Sure hope you complained, Deb! It is used a short-term residence for many workers---temps, or people transferring in to area who haven't found a house yet. Owner had died not too long before you were here....so maybe lots of turmoil. But we did have a Clinton-administration related murder there back in those days!!!

And on that note, I'm going to bed...

hedgie said...

It was an investigative journalist who obviously got too close to something!

floralgirl said...

That was Danny Casolaro, you can google the name, too complicated to explain. His death was suspicious.

hedgie said...

The Good Wife show is looking very good tonight!!

hedgie said...

Right you are, Megan!!!

deb said...

Lynn, I just figured it was mostly because of my lack of exposure to different lifestyles. I live a very sheltered life here in SD. There are places here where you do get that experience, but small town Vermillion isn't one of them!

hedgie said...

Oh, Deb, people are basically the same wherever we go! Some places are just less sophisticated than others---believe me, culture shock hit me full-face when I came here from the city---and it was only 75 miles!!

Lolly said...

Lynn! I just typed a long blog and you threw me off!!!! lol

magpie said...

I thought it was the Holiday Inn where the Casolaro murder was...

right next door to Days Inn but before its time...

maybe?

Hope I didn't throw Lolly off too...

magpie said...

And be careful what you leave in your car....and don't go out alone at night...
:(

Lolly said...

Nope! I am pouting! Not going to retype what I was saying.

Lolly said...

Oh, gee! Sissy is going to change motels for sure!

magpie said...

I have learned to highlight, copy, and then re-paste things so if it happens I can just paste it on there again. It's habit now.

magpie said...

No it's not that bad, 0 but the smoking is a bothersome thing, hadn't heard of that before.
Sorry that happened, Deb...that's crummy.

stronghunter said...

Old furniture has been moved out of my family room. Tom came over and helped Will take care of it. I have retired from furniture hauling. I see that Tom forgot to take the coffee table. Oh well, we can take care of that later.

stronghunter said...

a Clinton-administration related murder?

Lolly said...

Good idea about the copy and paste.

No, I was just telling you all that Laurel just called and I am excited. I am going on a church retreat next month and she called to say she is going too. We have never gone together. She went one time, but for some reason I was not able to go. It is going to be a really special weekend.

Lolly said...

Shirley, we will want to see pictures!

stronghunter said...

I will have to check that murder out.

Ready to go catch some z's now. Just finished tomorrow's lesson plan. Have to do the lab stuff tomorrow, but I am happy that things are not too bad!

Did not tell my children I was worried. They do not need to know.

Good night all!

stronghunter said...

I will take some pictures. It is going to be nice.

stronghunter said...

Sounds really nice, Lolly. You do lead an active life, woman.

Lolly said...

Night Shirley! Can understand about not wanting your children to worry. HOWEVER, that is what families are for...to love and support each other.

Lolly said...

Yes, and I plan on staying active. I was climbing a ladder today to pick pecans. Very thankful I am able to do so!!!

stronghunter said...

True, Lolly. They knew I was having problems. I filled them in on that. It's not the first time I've gotten in a state over some medical issue since the cancer thing. Don't want them to have to go through unnecessary stress. I decided to lean on you all this time, and on one of my friends at work. Thanks for the support.

stronghunter said...

I had an aunt who was climbing a ladder--I think she was in her 80's to clean out the gutters. Her handyman was afraid to do it. (He was elderly also.) She lived to be over 100 years old.

Mema Jo said...

Well the question is: Will the Good Wife or Won't the Good Wife... Stayed tuned ..........

I am calling it a good day.

Good Night All
Peace to All
Prayers for All
(((hugs for all))) ♥

deb said...

I am off to bed, night everyone.

stronghunter said...

Good night for real!!!

hedgie said...

Well, Shirley, we are good leaning posts!!! And our prayers are effective, too!
Lolly, do be careful on ladders! Retreat sounds like a nice spiritual respite for you both!

hedgie said...

Good night Jo, Deb and Shirley! Margy, it's your time, too!

magpie said...

Yes, it sure is, Lynn. I was just working on a particular prayer composition. MY homework for the night.

Lolly - sounds wonderful...tell us where it will be...

Rest well, all, Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of our life, remember ☺

God Bless Us, Every One
xo ♥

Lolly said...

The retreat is always in Athens in east Texas. The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) has a camp there on a small lake. It's in the woods, lots of Dogwood. It is a beautiful place.

Nite all!

Sweet drams!

hedgie said...

I am out of my imposed time-out from Hughes! Lots of mail to catch up on!! Good night to all here...heading for emails and FB for a little while before bed. Sleep well, sweet dreams. Prayers going up for all. See you in the frosty morning---argh!

Costume Lady said...

Good TV tonight! Really liked The Good Wife tonight. A jury member was bribed into voting for the defendant...I imagine that happens in real life more times than we know. Yes, Jo, will she??

Thank you all again for all the birthday greetings, cards and ecards. It means a lot to me to have you all in my life:)

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL

GOOD NIGHT/ GOOD MORNING

iT'S not impossible that all four Peregrine chicks at Alcoa have hatched. There's a lot of white fluff, and at times it looks like four heads....

There's one note from the expert at Frodo's site, and one viewer thinks she has found the new building where the pair are nesting. No cams yet.

magpie said...

Jim, you are definitely the Night Owl!

Have a good day, everyone, It's the Morning.

See you much later on tonight.
Happy Eagle Watching.
xo ☺ ♥

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Good morning eagle buds!! Three more days and I am getting so excited to see ya'll!!

floralgirl said...

34° here this morning....

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Wow, Megan, that is cold. It is a balmy 50 here in Bluefield this morning but I think it is coming our way.

floralgirl said...

Yep, gonna be very chilly here the next several days, make sure you bring warm clothes with you.
ANd just to clarify last night's info- Danny Casolaro died in the SHeraton Hotel in Martinsburg in 1991. He was investigating a company called Inslaw, the collapse of BCCI, Iran contra, and the October surprise when the hostages came home from Iran.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Mattie just got up with a headache and her stomach hurting. I think I am going to keep her home today and see how she does. Don't want to take any chances. I am not normally an overprotective person about stuff like that but, with all the bugs out there, I think it is better to err on the side of caution. She is not running a fever, though.

floralgirl said...

EAGLE!!
sorry no pics from me this morning, making breakfast and lunch

floralgirl said...

BOTH I think

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

It is both eagles this morning!! Good morning Belle and Liberty!! So good to see them this morning!!

floralgirl said...

It sure is, they are right on schedule this morning.
Hope Mattie feels better.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Lord, I was just reading back on the blog about the Days Inn in Martinsburg. Reckon I should change motels??

floralgirl said...

Did you already cancel the Clarion room? Was it a lot more expensive?

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Yeah, I did. It was double the amount of the Days Inn. I paid for Friday night in Winchester and Saturday night at the Days Inn for less than one night at the Clarion. BUT, I want us to be safe, so I don't know what I should do.

floralgirl said...

Wow- double huh. Probably the guys Deb was talking about were guys working construction, they get a hotel room cause they don't live around here, and it's cheap if they share a room. I looked at some reviews for the Days Inn, some were good, some not.

floralgirl said...

There's a hotel in Charlestown that is fairly new, but I can't remember the name of it, it's on 230 about 25 minutes out of Shepherdstown. Having CRS this morning, can't come up with the name.

floralgirl said...

Did you try the Comfort Inn in Shepherdstown?

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Yep, Comfort Inn is sold out.

Mits said...

Good morning everyone...have a good one

Mits said...

Sissy, how much was the Clarion?

floralgirl said...

Holiday Inn Express in Charlestown, probably Ranson actually.
Later I gotta go to work.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Total for the Clarion for one night was 139 or something like that. Just more than we wanted to pay since we are going to DC Sunday.

floralgirl said...

Holiday Inn Express
CHARLES TOWN
681 FLOWING SPRINGS ROAD
RANSON, WV 25438 UNITED STATES

1 888 HOLIDAY (1 888 465 4329)
