For the second weekend in a row, we lost our connection to our wireless Internet service provider on Friday, and it didn't come back up until late Sunday. Since we live in a rural area, our so-called high speed options are severely limited. DSL is not an option because we live too far from the central office. There is another wireless provider advertising in the area, so it seems to be time to check it out: when you are paying for seven days a week service, and only getting four days, it starts to get old.

I hope they get this wildland fire under control quickly. I saw the smoke as I was driving home this afternoon.
