Tammie, I did test and it was negative!

Thanks, Tammie. We saw the ventriloquist Terry Fator, an AGT winner, and he was so funny! That was great. Hell’s Kitchen was fun but TOO loud! My laptop wasn’t working hardly at all so I waited till we got home to post my books but then I got sick. I’m feeling decent, just a lot of coughing.

I am just now posting my books and I see that some people are posting characters' names that begin with letters that don't work for MANDOLIN, so my question is do we post all of the major characters even if they can't be used for mandolin?

Natasha, since I am on the road and mobile app, I really appreciate your research!

Thank you, Natasha.

Is purple the only bonus color for this round?

Thank you, Tammie! We aren’t going to a game. Probably couldn’t afford it lol We are going to Hell’s Kitchen and to see my BIL. Probably a little gambling and a show.

Hey, team, just a quick reminder that we are heading for Las Vegas this morning but will be back on Friday. Normally I try to check in every day or two and I still should be able to do that unless 49ers fans (us) get attacked by Raider Nation! lol Or the internet/laptop doesn't work. Usually we have no problem but haven't been to Vegas in several years. If you don't "hear from me" before then, we'll be back late Friday since it's an all day drive.

I am SO excited to start WHEELS!

I'm headed to Vegas in October as well...a conference...I think we're staying at the one that's part of the Venetian...right next to......"

We own a time share and we can go all over the world with it, but we're going to Vegas because my brother-in-law live there so we're going for a visit. :) Our resort is Worldmark and Club Wyndham.

I'm glad we don't start for a little bit so I can read all the directions when I don't have to little monsters (I mean angels) running around! lol

Thanks, Tammie :)

Here's my wheels link: wheels-8

Hello Team Classical! My favorite classical song is Claire de Lune. It’s beautiful!

I’m sitting in a school parking lot letting my 3 year old grandson sleep while I wait for my 5 year old granddaughter to get out of kindergarten. Then I go pick up one of my grandsons from his middle school, and then another grandson from his high school.
I just happen to be watching four grandchildren from yesterday through Sunday while my daughter and her husband are away on a trip for their wedding anniversary. Unless my grandson can help me when he gets home from school, I don’t have a computer, but I will post a little bit here from my phone and simply say that I have played wheels quite a number of times and I love it! I will also be going to Vegas on Monday through Friday, so this upcoming week might be a little bit spotty for me, but I am a good participant, and I will do everything I can to help our team succeed!

I love historical fiction, sports romance, mystery, psychological thriller, thriller, some fantasy (Jennifer Armentrout, Amy Harmon, Sarah J. Maas) and as little sci-fi as I can get away with! I’m definitely not a big sci-fi fan.

I’ll post my link to my wheels shelf later today when I run home for a bit so I can take care of a few things while hubby watches the kids for me.

Looking forward to having a lot of fun!

@Elinor, you're going to love Wheels! It's so fun and I always meet old friends (so to speak) and make new ones. Anything music has to be fun, right?

I'm ready to spin some wheels and I'm so excited for this challenge, one of my favorites for sure! Let's see where the spinning wheels land! Music as a theme is just a plus in my book. I played piano growing up and later played an organ, but sadly I lost the ability to play after my ex-husband sold both and I had no way to play so I literally lost the talent. I was always a play by sight player, never played just by ear.

This team was so fun and the challenge was fun this time as always.

Thanks to Louise and Melissa for being there for us all and being our captains. Hope to see you all again in other challenges!

I have been without internet all of last week plus the Friday before that, so I haven't been able to post my books. I have 7 to add but the SS is VIEW only. I thought we still had today, but am I too late or should I post them in this thread?

Just to double check, if we read a book prior to new tasks being posted for Wheels, it cannot be used for those tasks right?

I have several books to post. I love this challenge and enjoyed playing on this team. Thank you everyone!

Louise, since I can’t access my spreadsheet to see what I have on there I’m not positive I did the right thing. But I think I had the book listed for 336 pages and had it on the Kindle page count. Will you please double check for me and see if I fixed it correctly? Sorry to be a pain in the you-know-what!

Louise, I am so frustrated today with the Internet here in Florida at my sister’s house. I can’t get on my laptop for some reason but I can get on my phone which doesn’t allow me to do everything. I added Chase to my Tower teams shelf, so will you please confirm that it is there?

I’m not sure about my other book, but I will see if I can figure out some way to fix that.

Louise, will do.
