i hv been trying n trying, cannot find the 8

THese hard ones take too long - even with clues. I guess my patience is gone!

Boy - this was a nasty game!

I had thought when you said got it that you'd made it to 166, Donna. I'm keeping good company. Nano & Dale need to write the book for Howie!

That was it! Thanks so much, Dale. I've been at a basketball game so just saw your clue.

Oops..wrote my last message on the wrong page. Rob..please put up the pic you took of Santa surfing.. that's a great shot to catch and would love to see it

8 D, 5 Spades and J H first

That was the ticket, Dale.. 10 playing over..thanks so much!!

Oh my Margaret, you are lower than I am.. I was just happy to get lower lol. I am at 168 only. I will try your clue Dale

Thanks for your understanding, Dale -- and Magic and Donna and Annette. I appreciate the kind words from all of you.
