Oh you were being sarcastic again then! 🤣 I was expecting something like..."

Haha! 5' 8" IS tall, I've just got a lot of tall people in my family. My dad is 6' 3", and my mom's brother is I think 6' 10".

[Pamela]

I am 5'4" tall according to my doctor and my driver's license

Don't tell my sister Jennifer this, 😂 but you're taller than her!! 😂😉

Oh wow!! 😮

I just got to thinking, what if there ends up being a tie here too?! 😂

[Pamela]

Oh dear, I didn't consider that! How about the tiebreaker being who has the shorter hair? Huh...I do hope it doesn't end in a tie!

Lol! We'll wait and see what happens. 😉 Where is Ruth today?! 🤔

Well, since you're..."

Emma, you are tall! I have to stand on a chair to reach the top shelf of my kitchen cabinets. By the time I climb up, I usually forget what I'm looking for!

Haha! Yes, I've always been very tall!!

[Ruth]

Isn't it the first to answer the quiz
correctly wins the round, or are we
not doing that anymore? 😕

[Pamela]

Ruth wrote: "Isn't it the first to answer the quiz

That's the most fair way, Ruth! I think that should be the way to do it!

[Joanna]

Ruth wrote: "Isn't it the first to answer the quiz

Oh, I was so curious how tall everyone is! 😂 But you're right Ruth, that is how it should work. Which makes you the winner!!! 😊

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

Right when it was getting fun! 😒😂

I'm still so new here...refresh my memory. Does the winner ask the next question? (I'm also getting forgetful in my old age, so I may have been told that before....but I forget) See, I already forgot I said forget more than once! It has to be this neverending heat!

Pamela, my family did not used to have AC when we lived in TN, so what my sisters and I did, was we would get a bucket of cold water and put our feet in it. It was so relaxing and cool us down so much! Just a suggestion if you're overheating. 🙂

Hi Pammy,🐈
Your not being forgetful, it's this group- it's a
roller coaster. Remember when you first
arrived and now? Did you ever expect this?
You should read back to July 4th, we spent the day
in hysterics from so much laughter.
Yes, the winner has the next round.

You and I are the same height.

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

Dorry, you didn't put your height.

[Ruth]

George Washington's headquarters and
H. W. Longfellow's house

No, because you ate it!

That sounds refreshing! I'll try it! My mom has air conditioning and lives right next door, so I do get relief. I wish my cat didn't get sick from AC ,but she does so I just muddle through the heat.

Oooohhhh! What a lovely house! I love old houses. There are 2 not very far from me that are my favorites. The Asa Packer Mansion in Jim Thorpe, PA, and Pennypacker Mills in Schwenksville, PA. I would move into either one of them. President Buchanan's Wheatland is also lovely. That's in Lancaster, Pa.

Great Pamela! We also used to wear a wet bandana as well, which worked great!

She's probably the shortest one here, Emma. Now I shall flee... 🤣

Hi Pammy,
So do I. The history, craftsmanship and comfort aspect
really appeal to me.

[Ruth]

Okay
What author has a garden named for their characters?

[Hannah]

Ruth wrote: "Okay

Oh what a cute idea! Maybe we'll have to name our vegetable garden!

Now this sounds like an Alcott thing.

[Pamela]

Ruth wrote: "Okay

I know this writer loved to garden, so I'm strictly guessing here:

Emily Dickinson

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

Ruth wrote: "Okay

This is a good one Ruth! I feel like I should guess Emily Dickinson, but I'm going to guess Mark Twain instead.

[Pamela]

It just occurred to me that Dickinson didn't really have well known character, but rather lovely poems!

[Joanna]

[Allyson]

I cannot believe Emma and Dorry talked for so long about one bite of cheesecake!!😂🙄

[Allyson]

Meg you're tall!! I think I'm tall and I'm 5'7"! I still hope I might yet grow...😏

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

Meg wrote: ""

Uh oh Meg's thinking hard... 😣😬

[Allyson]

Haha! I love that Meg!!! Have you seen Winnie the Pooh?

[Pamela]

Ruth wrote: "Okay

Now I'm wondering if the author planted the garden, or if it was done later as a tribute to the author. Oh dear, this is a good one, Ruth!
Pam

[Ruth]

Pamela,
Thank you. I like the way you are processing
your thoughts.😊

Allyson,
You aren't kidding about the afternoon long cheesecake
chat. It took less time to make it.😄

Meg,
I take it your picture is our new quiz slogan?🤔

Emma,🎯
Do you have a dart board with pictures of N.E.L. authors?

[Joanna]

Allyson wrote: "Meg you're tall!! I think I'm tall and I'm 5'7"! I still hope I might yet grow...😏"

Haha, you might! 😊 My mom is 5' 7". One of my biggest fears growing up was that Dorry would end up taller than me. 😂

[Joanna]

Allyson wrote: "Haha! I love that Meg!!! Have you seen Winnie the Pooh?"

Oh yes, we used to watch him Winnie-the-Pooh a lot when we were little. 😊

[Joanna]

Ruth wrote: "Meg,

It's me right now, but I do feel like a bear with very little brain! 😏

I think summer is doing a number on us.
It is such a cute picture.😄

Meg, you are in trouble. Okay, Emma, I think I'm 5'5
