The whole day went according to plan, until the time came for me to write my wee web log. Then nothing would work.
Betty and Vinal came to the cottage mid morning. Betty cooked fresh haddock for lunch along with the rice pilaf she had made. It was a beautiful day sitting on the deck eating such good food. Cup cakes for dessert. They had purchased a Ford Escape so we were keen to inspect it. We are hoping to replace our truck and one option is an Escape. We enjoyed their visit but we both took a nap before organizing for home and we were late leaving.
Gill has three house guests and they were coming to dinner at 6:00. Fortunately they are very understanding people because when they arrived, the dinner was still frozen solid. But I had set the table and set out the wine so we sat on the deck enjoying the beautiful evening while the dinner thawed and heated. The guests eat only vegetables so we ate the vegetable stir fried dish made by The River Band. Great evening with Gill's friends. The three ladies went to college with Gill, many years ago.
By the time I was ready to sit at the computer, the server would not connect to the internet. Ken tried to figure things out, all to no avail so we went to sleep, thinking the service would be restored by morning. But no luck. I called East Link and they assured me that their technical problem was being rectified, but not soon enough. I had plans for an expedition with Mary and Clif this morning. By noon, service to the Internet was restored but this is the first time I have been able to sit at the computer. Being without the Internet is not easy but it does keep us humble.
