Chris the cable guy

We have had expanded cable here at the Wayfarer, or what ever that is called, for the last 12 years.  For some reason the higher the channel, the worse the picture.  Every year I call the cable company to get that taken care of and every year they sort of fix it.

Today Chris came.

He’s a neighbor working for the cable company (I didn’t know him/that).

He is the first one to diagnose something that makes sense.  Yay.  If he keeps his word, it will take all day but he WILL be here in the morning.

Yahooooouuuuooooo :mrgreen:

Follow-up – Chris did come, he worked here most of the day, we’ve never had better reception, ever.   Ooops and I almost forgot to tell you all that the wireless internet has been fixed and is working swimmingly. So when you get here and absolutely cannot stay away from your computer and email and forums and what not, come and ask me for the access code, I’ll give it to you for freeeeeeeee

Getting the goods, or…

…harvesting the first VEGGIES!!

Katie came over yesterday with Ella, her little niece.  They picked a few weeds and then they discovered that the beans were ripe for the picking. Don’t they look amazing?  Hehe and the basil looks like it wants to be picked as well.  The peppers are still growing nicely, the onions look small. I am talking about those things that stick up from the ground that look like chives, they look a little small to me. But what do I know?

Ok, question for you all, how long will the beans produce?  Is this handful all there is on those small plants?

So this was a nice end to a fun afternoon.  Katie came over around 6:30 – I had just come home from a Chamber function on the Sand Dunes Boat.

Yes there was wine and beer and good food involved there too.  Gluttony (is that how it’s spelled?)
