Maybe calling AT&T was a good idea after all. I just got a 2nd email, this time with an order number. So I know something is happening. When I called earlier the rep had asked if I’d received an email with an order number, but at that time I had not, so she said she’d [...]
I just got off the phone with AT&T tech support. After receiving an email 15 hours ago saying I’ll be notified by email when my new iPhone is activated, I had checked my old phone only to discover that the SIM card in it had been decommissioned, leaving me without any cellphone service. Luckily, we [...]
We got them! Phil and I gave each other 8GB iPhones for mutual birthday/anniversary presents. That’s the good news. The bad news is that because i was already an AT&T customer, but hadn’t changed my name or address on the account yet, and Phil was a Sprint customer on his son’s family plan, and I [...]
We got here, stayed at cousin Naomi’s farm for a couple of days, attended the very enjoyable family reunion, and now we think we’ve found a house we want to buy! Not bad for less than a week, huh? I’m writing about the reunion on the family blog, so I won’t repeat that here except [...]
Here’s an updated map of our trip from Florida to NW Missouri, the first leg of our contra-snowbird migration this year. We’ll be at the terminus of this route by Friday afternoon. Imaging credit: Google Earth
Aw, darn. The RV park where I was counting on stopping tomorrow is full, so we’ll be driving a little further, to Columbia, MO instead of Danville. And the place I want to stay in St. Joseph won’t have room for us until Saturday at the earliest, but that’s not a big deal. We’ve asked [...]
We arrived in Clarksville, TN this evening in good time, in spite of the rainy weather and a bit of traffic around Nashville. We had a good visit with my son James & his family, having dinner with them two nights running while we were dry-camping at the Wal-Mart on Chastain Meadows near Marietta. (I [...]
By the way, I sketched out our tenative plans for where we’ll be heading for the next year or so on the iCal calendar mentioned in an earlier posting. Check the page called “Travel Calendar” if you’re interested in our schemes!
We finally got moving today, and made it to Tifton, GA where we’re staying at a nice little campground just off the interstate, called The Pines. We stopped here once before, last year, and found the accommodations good (free high-speed WiFi!), the surroundings attractive and quiet, and the people friendly. The same is true this [...]
I’ve just “published” the travel portion of my iCal digital calender online. I’ll put up a static page on this site that will be updated dynamically whenever I make changes to the one on my desktop (assuming it’s connected to the ‘net). One cool thing about iCal web calendars is that people can ‘subscribe’ to [...]
