pulled snelling avenue east from the words then worked with the rest of the letters... there were some other words that came up but those seemed most

feasible for a park.

Back from Newell and parks beyond. Probably 15 - 20 people at Newell yet at 1:30...then checked out Highland about 2:00. Probably only 6 out there that I could

see in the fog. Then on to the Capitol Mall. By 2:15 or 2:30, there were at least 10 people there and some were doing some serious digging.
