Might As Well Have Been Shipwrecked!

Without phone and email service, online access, scanning and printing abilities, I have been on a virtual island since Tuesday when we returned from our wedding anniversary outing. I finally understand now why Jim insisted we needed cell phones a while ago. I'll never question the wisdom of this again! I was so glad to be able to call my daughter and let her know we were all right; and happy that we could contact the phone company to straighten out the problem they had caused.

Seems, while working on a nearby communication "box" the technicians pinched our wires to someone else's wires and we were rendered silent! It was almost as bad as the four-day power outage we experienced two summers ago. But at least this time we didn't lose all of our frozen food. Still we might as well have been shipwrecked!

But you're wondering how the anniversary outing went with picnicking and antique hunting with the shelties. Well, we had a fabulous time! Found some fun finds (thrifty and some not so) and the dogs had a super time. (Photos to be posted soon, so please stay tuned.)

And thank you all for your best wishes! It was wonderful to finally be able to log on this morning and find such sweet comments and happy congratulations! I'll be around soon to visit you too! Again...many many thanks!
