Hello again everyone, just putting my 2 cents in again. I also want to thank everyone for welcoming me, it is/was great(ly) appreciated. There are lots of things that are on several posts that I thought I would do my best to try and help possibly give some insight to, once again observations and opinions for the most part unless stated otherwise.
As for if there are windows in the shop Kelly worked in, there are, they are small in width and sparse. As stated by CiV, her workstation is closer to the door, but employees are encouraged to use certain doors and not all due to alarms. As for the lobby, there is a large portion of the front that is glass, however, there is not someone there at all times. They may be on break, called away, running errands, etc. You can see a majority of the parking lot, but there is a portion that is not as accessible unless you stand at the windows. With that said, you can see towards the river, but still hindered by trees. The cul-de-sac is not necessarily visible either due to the slight hill. And as for if she would be able to take calls on her cell, she could if she could hear, but being in the shop with many different forms of manufacturing equipment, it would be quite difficult.
To address her changing her locks, I do not find that surprising at all, amiblicable relationship split or not. People do it all the time and she had the knowledge and the ability to do so, actually we all do, just go to your neighborhood BIG BOX Warehouse Hardware store. I know she had contact with someone that worked for one of those companies (as did I) so I am certain she was quite knowledgable. (You know who you are = ) When I worked there, that is generally what people were buying them for, not for new construction or even purchasing a new to them home. I doubt she was fearful, just taking the next step in doing so, to her it may have been the period at the end of a sentance to signify and end to the relationship.
I can confirm that Kelly did have Lasik surgery several years ago, I was there at the time and she loved to show me the improvement she made daily. She had that lovely teltale sign of the blood blister on the side of her eyes. As for the goggles/glasses, I am not sure which ones they were. They are supplied unless you like a particular kind, but generally everyone marked their stuff for identification, in case you left in the canteen, bathroom, workout room, etc. The same goes for the gloves. If it was indeed goggles that were found and not safety glasses, that could have been the clue, Kelly did several types of welding and she had a helmet that I know, but may have had goggles too. Also, as a side note, welders can develope poisoning from the spraks/burns they get and each person reacts differently to that as well. If your curious, try a search engine.
Based on what CiV has said, it sounds like she became a "tenant" after their split and that is when the deed was changed. Once again, this is not unusual, been there, done that, seen it a million times in my line of work.
Thanks Shutterfly for mentioning Vulcan, I hadn't thought about that either. Makes since as well, and though the map makes it look far away, it really isn't that far or hard to get too from BPA. Still not sure though. Keep that brain working.
CiV, I know this is hard for you and I will state that I appreciate you putting your personal life out here for all of us to read. I am sorry that you have to go thru this and I am remorseful that I did not keep in better contact, but our seperate lives pull us in so many different directions.
Not sure if this long winded (once again) note helps at all, but I will try and give you what ever I have. It seems like the only real way I can help besides keep posting online, calling news crews and newspaper asking how come we are not hearing anymore. It gave me a chill when I heard about another 40 year old woman missing around here and once again, family and friends are positive that it is not suicide. Sick people in this world, in more ways than one.
Best regards to you all, God Bless Kelly, her family, her friends and to you as well.
Thanks again!
