Smiled,read the wall poster, when it should have read 'smiling' (11). It is a misconception that Thoreau, New Mexico has much, if anything to do with Henry David Thoreau. Traveling in the early morning hours, before sunrise, one might experience (first hand) a feeling of....smiling.   I've never seen so many hawks in Oklahoma as I did today.  The experience was definitely worth the turnpike tolls. |  |  |

This is the last posting.  How can you miss three posts inbetween???????????????? Remember that the last word of a sentence has to be the same as the first word of the next. So we have:Smiled, read the wall poster, when it should have read 'smiling'. (11) Smiling with eyes only is not best way to encourage returning guests. (12)
 Guests in nests, fonder of pests, rarely feel tense or bother making cents. (13)
 Cents or pence, hidden in vents, are safe from thieves who can come anywhence. (14)
