View of the day-The tractor dressed for the winter waits for the snow to fall...which is supposed to happen this weekend according to the forecast...but what do they know?
We were up early, after a great night's sleep back in our own bed. It was kind of weird waking up during the night,being half asleep and expecting to be in the camper...it was almost as cold...don't want to turn the furnace on too early. It had rained a lot during the night and was cool, windy and overcast for most of the day...which turned into a misting rain in the evening.
We decided to go and vote at the advance polls for next Monday's federal general election, but we got there too early so we had to wait until after lunch to do our civic duty. It's nice we only have to put up with the campaining for five weeks as compared to the three years...or so it seems...to our south. After we voted we did a bit of shopping...winterizing stuff for the vehicles and camper, then Marilyn took Al out to the tractor so he could bring it back to the farm and get the dozer put on for all the snow pushing he will have to do this winter.
Marilyn got to work on getting the camper unloaded, but first and foremost was getting the high speed internet hooked back up...what a performance that was...and it still isn't right. For some reason, the wireless router will not hook the other computers up to the internet...not even when they are hard wired directly. So having the wireless on the laptop is useless at this point since only one computer can be hooked up at a time to the modem. It was one of those things that you work at for four hours, then walk away from...to find a hammer. But at least she doesn't have to drive into town to do the blog tonight.
Marilyn had a meeting for the theatre group in town and Al was pumped to watch his Monday Night Football, but a phone call at half time took him away from the rest of the game...and he said it was a good one.
More bad news on the financial front...and is it any wonder?? Marilyn hasn't been in a WalMart since Sept.1...
