Waiting For Our Internet

(Avon Park, FL) Hi 58 Lo 55 -- I slept in this morning to catch up for the past few days. It was cloudy and cool so a nice day to just do nothing.

I've learned I'm going to have to change my ways a lot if I want to do any activities. We looked over the list of activities and nothing goes on after 1:00 on most days. Most everything starts at 8 in the morning. I noticed on the other parks that it's the same way. Shuffleboard is at 8am, that's really not good, besides being colder that time of the morning. That's just too early to get the bones moving. I'd much rather play in the afternoon. I guess I'll have to find a few people who would like to play in the afternoons.

We had to hang around today to wait on a Century Link serviceman to come out to connect our DSL internet. Of course, he was due "no later than 7pm." Around 5 he still hadn't come, so Jim called the local Century Link office and they said the guy had already completed our connection. Jim went out behind the rig to the pedestal and hooked up a phone line, ran it inside through a rear window to the wireless modem, and sure enough we were connected. The guy must have snuck behind the rig and set up the connection without even letting us know he was here. We now have internet and it's fast! We could have had it all day if we'd known. Go figure!

We had dinner then went over to the clubhouse to play cards. We love the laughing and joking with the group. It was a great time. At 9:00, ("RV midnight") we came home, watched some TV and I was back in the chat room.
