What Next?

The travel gods are still angry with us for taking that two month break apparently. Our DISH tv service has gone on the fritz. At first we thought our loss of signal was due to the heavy rains of Tuesday night, but Wednesday morning after the skies cleared we still had no signal. So Denny removed the satellite dish from its moorings, cleaned all the contacts, replaced and realigned the dish and voila', we had a signal and service. The tv was turned off and we went about our business until dinner time when we watch the evening news. No signal. Denny checked the connections, replaced one of the cables-nothing. I called tech support and we went through all the hoops in an attempt to get the signal. Nothing. We stumped the gal when we got to the point that the system info screen said we had no satellite at all. Find a retail store, she said, and make a service appointment. Ha. The closest one is forty miles away; we are CAMPING, folks!

We are being tested. We will prevail.
