Laptop love!
OK, giving this blackberry posting thing another try! Currently sitting outside under the stars and watching employee of the month on my laptop (since I still have no power)!
Yep its foggy and mosquitoes are eating me to death but making the best of the moment! Toads are vocalizing, moon is almost full . . . . And I just had a bat buzz past me. The Peepers couldn’t be any louder.
Hope power return again soon! If you see this then I figured out my problem with my last post!

You are coming in loud and clear. I can almost hear the toads.

Wow, how cool, you really posted with your Blackberry! It actually sounds like a pretty good situation compared to being in the city except for the mosquito part. We certainly aren’t seeing a full moon here but we are seeing lots of lightning. I have my fingers crossed you’ll get power before your laptop battery goes dead!

It’s still a beautiful view even though it’s foggy! I hope your power is restored soon. π

This is the perfect setting for Friday the 13th, very eeeeery!! Sounds and looks nice, actually – except for the mosquitoes!

What a funny juxtaposition…. the laptop outside framed against the foggy evening! Yay for your Blackberry!

EVERYONE: my power came back on late in the evening but not long after that my cellphone lasts reception!
@ Liza β yeah it worked!
@ Lisa β Great and they have a great trill!
@ Linda β This post was done entirely with my blackberry. Mosquitos were overbearing but I just dealt with them. Regarding my battery, I purchased a second battery that I only use from time to time (so itβs almost like new when I use it).
@ Heather β thanks and the fog was beautiful for sure!
@ Pam β it was one of those Friday the 13th days!
@ Jayne β thanks and high five for my blackberry for sure . . . although at the end of the day I did use up all my battery.

Oh, no, no power! That is miserable.

Works great. I’m impressed.
Have a nice weekend.
There’s a party over here.
Come and visit for a while,
Troy

Ha! Way to make lemonade! That’s a funny movie, too.

That’s a mighty fine backdrop to watch a movie in!

Wow–that’s some great sounds you describe. Our peepers have stopped but keep hearing wood frogs and toads.

Hang in there, dear Tom! I like the fragrance of OFF bug repellent. I wear it every evening.
I don’t hear peepers any longer but the horny toads are screaming at the top of their little lungs.

@ Threecollie β glad to have it back!
@ Troy β Sweet! I should have gone!
@ Amy β That is a great movie, thanks!
@ Adam β many distracting things while watching the movie!
@ Joan β Love hearing the frogs!
@ Mary I do love the OFF smells! Thanks

You are certainly multi-talented–posting without power and from your Blackberry.

HI Tom,
Do I ever miss you guys. Still in AZ and I don’t get a chance to get online much. I just now got caught up with all your posts. I sure missed a lot but from talking with Don I don’t miss the hot muggy days. Loved seeing the Lady Slipper post and all the birds. Have a great day!

You and YNJ make an awesome double-team. Are all systems go now?
15 June 2008 at 8:25 pm
@ KGMom – working on improving those skills! Just working out the kinks for times that I could be posting live! I think I have everything worked out now!
@ Toni – Miss ya and I hope you are taking many pictures to share with us when you return!
@ Trixie – thanks and had to give him a call to help when my power was out! He did a great job with saving me!
