I asked her where her new country is. England - Beatles? Probably not - If the times are right, she posted good morning at 9:00 EST which means she is in north or south America. 15 hour gap in tweets so she could have flown most anywhere.

Have you seen who Abby is now following on Twitter. Lots of survivalist and off grid living stuff.

Yeah and a few Alaska topics.
Has anyone taken a crack at the @Z1Pandemic crossword yet?

Alaska would fit in perfectly with the "good morning" tweet time

Not sure if this is related but the only person following her was @AbbyPapanai when I spotted it. The other people she is following are from Unfiction, et al.

Am beginning to wonder if the crossword might be a red herring for a message in the letter string:
Quote:
tsbaasuspaelclistrnvotttiaogewieenntonnvrgdoanaceadoetdle
When I arrange those letters in a grid & disregard most of the bottom line it reads: tango seven blown active alter site g us in... where it begins to go weird. Am heading to a RL meeting and unavailable but thought I should mention this.
Code:
tsbaasusp
aelclistr
nvotttiao
gewieennt
onnvrgdoa
naceadoetdles

Count out the letters. The first 9 is the first letter in each word.
The next 9 are the second letters. etc.
tango, seven & blown are the first three words.

I suspect the clue numbers in the grid give the word order for the message. You could anagram the string but there may be letters missing for crossovers in the puzzle.
For example on the right side of the grid tango and blown will fit together.
Wont be able to look at it properly for a couple of hours yet.

blown
activaee
alternate

The 2 misspellings might be in error, but are what was provided
I'll let everyone solve the crossword for themselves.

Reading her tweets and seeing there is a small puzzle there, I am inclined to think that it isn't related may be a trailhead itself.

I get something slightly different. Solving for the crossword, I have
8A tango
3D seven
6D blown
5D activate
9A alternate
7A site
2A using
1D protocols
changing activee to ativate. Everything also fits into the crossword so far,
but instead of standadd I am left with the letters sdandead and 4 down (8 chars) that should have an R for next-to-last char but there are no more r letters left.
