You solve these Word Ladders by changing one letter in the first word to form a new word and then repeat the process until you spell the ending word. The number of letter-change moves it took me follows each clue...can you do it in less? Example: To change Mice into Rats I made 4 moves... mice - 1-> mi te - 2-> m ate - 3-> mat s - 4-> rats = 1. ball game -3 = 2. long time -4 = 3. flat tire -5 = 4. golf club -8 5. over here -9 6. black board -9 :wave12:
Dan ... To learn, read...To know, write...To master, teach...To live, play games & listen to whale music Stay Smart & Stay Safe

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
