Tonight: fireworks over the lake

I will tell you more tomorrow. Let me just say this the South end of Lake Pend Oreille is narrow and bounded by tall mountains. I am told the fireworks blasts echo back and forth above the lake. And the view ain’t half bad either.
Later, Duffer

Happy Fourth of July (Special day in America)

July 4th, 2009 • Duffer • 0 comments • Related • Filed Under

Since I have  a few trusted followers from various countries, I thought I would explain briefly that today America celebrates it’s birth as a nation. We also celebrate the brave people who fought against a King. The king thought those people should remain under his laws and taxes. And our forefathers disagreed and fought for freedom from oppressive government.

However, I did find WI-Fi but I could not connect to it. The person who owns the wifi did not write down all the information from when she had tech support help her get it set up. I could not connect to hers. ThenI saw a very weak unsecured connecgtion of someone in her neighborhood and I used that until it became too weak.

Now, I am in the hamlet of Rathdrum, Idaho visiting my niece’s family and the rest of my family for the 4th of July picnic. All the family is coming for miles around to see the wandering geek (ME!). Many generations of family are arriving as I type. The food is getting piled high ont he tables.

Blessings to you and your family and to America.
