She dropped me off at home around 12:15 and returned to Milledgeville to have lunch with Laura, one of her friends. What did I have for lunch? I had a roast beef sandwich, fritos, and a diet coke. I bet I had a nicer view than her and Laura. I ate out on the porch looking out over the lake and also enjoyed the sounds of nature. While she was gone I mixed up some Round-up weed killer and sprayed around the yard and driveway.
Judy returned home around 3PM. She said, “ I have a Pilot club meeting at 7 PM .” That meant another trip into Milledgeville. That would be the third trip in for her. I told her that I would ride back in with her and she could drop me off at the Black Bird Coffee shop. I could use a couple of hours of “me time” until her meeting was over. So that is where I am now, having an ice mocca listening to some relaxing music and writing a blog entry which I had not planned to write.

HELP: I have not solved my lack of internet access for the time we will be at the CG. I checked at Verizon yesterday. The only thing offered was MIFI at $80.00 a month. That is not going to happen. If anyone has another suggestion please let me know via email or in the comment section.
Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day.
Next blog – When I have internet access
I believe while I was reading Jimbo's Journeys shortly after the new year he had made a switch to a different provider that offered better service, lower cost, and a high monthly usage to boot.

It's about time.
Although we have a Verizon mifi, we tether our droids to our computers via pda-net more often. It works pretty good!
ReplyDeletewe have a Mifi through Virgin mobile. We purchased the unit at Wal Mart and signed up on line. We do the unlimited plan for $50 per month but there is no contract, you can use it for a couple of months, let it expire and then start it back up again whenever you want. They use Sprint towers and the service has been good for where we have traveled.
ReplyDeleteWe are work camping this summer and the park has good Wifi so we will not be renewing our Mifi until we leave there in the fall.
Do you have a smart phone? If so you could tether your laptop to your smartphone.
ReplyDeleteOur Verizon phone and internet bill is way too high, but we just bite the bullet and pay it. We figure there are other homeowner type of expenses that we no longer have, so we're just doing it. We have Mifi. I think 3g is $50 a month. Also, ask Verizon about discounts. They offer them for many things...retired military?
We use Millenicom, our plan is run through the Verizon network. $59.99/mo no contract or taxes. We use a secured Cradlepoint PHS300 for two laptops and a Wii. Currently we are workamping at Indian Springs State Park until March 30.
