yes, saw the pix & thread yesterday.
I was between the WW2 & Washington Memorial...a LONG way from platform. Couldn’t see diddly of the situation but did hear well & was able to be part of the event, which was my goal
Good morning! Crazy day today. First off our youngest daughter called us and was screaming into the phone. it took a while for me to understand that there had been a “flood” and “water was standing in the house.” Turns out a pipe or something had a leak behind the washing maching overnight and water flooded portions of the downstairs. So, we got her to shut off water to the house. She had to break a window in the basement door to do that. That will be fixed first!
Then, she emailed her profs and explained why she won’t be in classes this AM. Next, she began cleaning up the mess.
We’ll be home in about two hours and will take over from there. See, we’ve been up in H’ville all weekend.
Then. Our host, who is an IT geek, had trouble with his home system and I couldn’t get onto his system for internet. Couldn’t find the dongle to connect to my phone system either. So, I had my phone to get to the ‘net.
The phone only shows one page at a time.
Our car is being finicky these days and so we had to convince it that it really needs to go and get us back to Auburn.
At present everything is working. Except the electric outlet in the car which is used to power the laptop. I’m using the battery now.
It is sprinkling rain here and that is a good thing. We’re just having to travel in the rain.
