Do It Now!

We looked at the weather forecast today and ....yikes!!!....on Thursday we may have snow showers! Today was a really lovely fall day with high 72, clear blue sky and colorful falling leaves. So today was the day to install the new satellite dish board and try to get the GPS working.

Jim figured he would not have to stretch or overextend his right arm so he got all the tools together, climbed on the roof and put in the new board. Within 2 hours he had the board installed, the dish recalibrated and ...voila...the GPS light came back on . What this means is that when we move and park we just push a button and the dish goes up, finds the satellite using the GPS location, and we're good to go. So that's nice to have it fixed. Now when you click on our location link on the right you'll see where we really are.

Once that task was done we took a bike ride around the park and then sat outside to enjoy the wonderful day which may be the last warm day for awhile. I tell you, I'm getting a little anxious to start moving south. I think it's something ingrained after living here in the Midwest for 37 years. When the leaves fall and the geese form a V and honk their way south...it's time to hunker down for winter or move on :).
