… been without internet since Wednesday Dec 28th. It is about 3pm on the 30th. Verizon has had their towers crash for data in several areas of the country. We are lucky, we are in one of those areas.
I am writing this in hopes that we are back on line before the First of the year.
We had a very nice Christmas.. Lots of Indiana family around. We did miss our "North Dakota" family though… all of you!
01/02/2012: It is snowing, windy and cold. A good day to stay home and watch TV.
We are watching the Rose Parade as we have traditionally for too many years to remember! Just the same as the Rose Bowl game. I'll be rooting for the Oregon Ducks this year.
GO DUCKS!!!!
We still do not have Internet service. Very bad, Verizon! We have been told that it is some kind of system wide problem in the mid west and they will be working on it on monday. Ya, sure!
Yesterday (Sunday) we hosted a dinner for family. A informal affair with Ham and fixin's the guests brought. Let's see, Kay, Joy, Elinor, Bill and Jerry & Jo-an Walls all attended. Carol Clem was intending to come but we were experiencing very high winds (50 mph gusts) and she was not comfortable driving in those conditions. I don't think I would have been either. The card table was set up and the games began after dinner.
It's the halftime for the RoseBowl and the game is all tied up 28 all and it is 6:45 PM. I'll put this to bed and hope I can get it posted tomorrow.
01/06/2012 Wow! It's 1730 and I've got my self back on the Internet. We had a very pleasant last 2 days with a visit from our Illinois cousins, Richard and Nikki Mitts. We really had a grand time with them. We also discovered our wedding anniversaries were on the same day. Neat, huh? We are tentatively planning a get together for that date..
Later,
