Carole's 29 words-fair & square- without electronic help, for EXPLORERS.wow

Here is Carole, LadyCeeMarie's list, trying to win her 5 clicks:

"And for my list, that I did in about 30 minutes of procrastinating going to bed, I came up with:
E-X-P-L-O-R-E-R-S
Lore, lode, leers, lose, lope, loser, lox (the fish?)
poser, pose, pole, pox
seer, seep, sole, sore, Sox (as in -- the Red OR the White)
eros, expel, expose, Errol(as in Flynn)
rose, rope, role, roper, repo (as in take back your car), Rolex, repel, reps (short for Republicans!)
and last but not least, coming in  with two whole letters, OX

I think that makes 29 (and no electronic help either!)

Thanks for the mind tweek which is good exercise, too!

Love and hugs,
Carole"

I apologize for being away thislong--month end. Though I have a startup biz

that is not the reason I have been busy. Just many things left over from the weekend. But thanks for your prayers I did find I kept my Lord in my heart and lips as I worked. This gave me patience, optimism, and strength. try it---but you FOUR (the Fab FOUR?) already do, GOD EVENING gentle souls...I will return in a few with CEEMARIE's list for explorers. I waited for her permissiont o show her list that came ot me via email....but then she granted the permission 7 hours ago to me to use her list/note to me. Hence, my tardiness & apology.PAZ

Nelly-

That was my Gma's name, except spelled Nellie. I will see what I can do with today's word.  Did I miss seeing Lox on the list and Sox as in the baseball teams and Errol, the first name of silent screen heartthrob? Just wondered......  Loved the way you worked explorers into a sonnet!

Durbin - I'm happy you enjoyed the pic. I haven't had time to play your

word games of late, but will again.  That's a great sonnet.  Highly creative and well done.

Well done on that sonnet, Durbs - a difficult feat pulled off.

I must admit i'm not verygood at doing these word searches - I'm not very good at crosswords, either - but well done to all those who have risen to the challenge! God evening to you, sir!
