More of the same

 You are probably tired of me reporting on the changes going on at the property next door to me. Sorry! It's just such a major event for me.

The logging company worked cutting and clearing trees for about 2 weeks.

Truck loads of giant sections of the trees were hauled away...one after another.

Burning going on off to the side of my back field.

When they finished, they disassembled their set-up and loaded equipment on trailers and left

Walmart has a big display of packaged plant starts. Irresistible when one is so anxious for the spring growing season. I bought two snowball viburnums.

These look healthy...already with some green leaves. Maybe I'll pick up one more.

One morning, early, while it was still dark, I glanced out the front window and saw a man up on the telephone pole. I only noticed because I could see the bright light of the head lamp he was wearing.

That was weird. Then I found that I had no internet. Hmm.

I waited a few hours to see if it would come back. Nothing.

I called Spectrum (three lengthy calls...one in which they wrongly told me i needed a new modem) and they couldn't come out and check for the problem for 2 days.

Meanwhile no internet and no television (I only have streaming...no antenna or cable).

So it turns out that they had just disconnected my service because of "noise in the line".

Sheesh! It seems like they could have had someone here to repair the problem instead of disconnecting.

It took the service man a while to figure everything out. Everything is in working order now.

It makes me realize that I'm so dependent on this technology!
