cable guy

I haven't been online as much recently, because our troublesome fiber optic cable finally gave out completely, knocking out the internet for most of our community. Luckily (I might say providentially, but I fear some might object to me assuming God could be a supporter of the internet) a new friend of a friend enabled us to purchase new cable at a much lower price than we could find ourselves. So we now have brand new cable. I've been working hard to install it on trees, over hill and creek, for almost three quarters of a mile. Heather's been a big help too.

Ironically, I've been getting much more exercise than usual, climbing and cutting trees till I'm sore, and much more time outdoors (even got a bit of a sunburn in March!). All thanks to the internet.
