Saturday

 

We left home at 7:30 this morning, after walking Toby, headed for Clearwater Beach.

It was a great morning for biking and walking: mostly cloudy with temperatures in the upper 70s.

We walked north of the pier, about a mile. You can barely see the pier in the picture above.

And back to Pier 60

The bridge to Sand Key as seen from the corkscrew of the causeway bridge on the mainland.

John dropped me off at Weaver Park so I could do stretching and strength training. Today was a makeup day for missing Wednesday. The clouds had dispersed. 

Our new AT&T wireless Internet router arrived. It was "plug and play" simple as we were told. My phone is now connected to it, and I plan to connect the desktop tonight. Then, if that goes well, we'll connect the TV and game console. We're skeptical that a wireless router can handle all that at the same time, but we're open to trying. If it can, then we can say goodbye to Spectrum and save money. Otherwise, it will be good to have an Internet back-up, and we'll still be saving money with our new data plan for seniors.

The AT&T wireless router is rather large. I put it on the top shelf for the best signal. I'm going to have to work on disguising it better once we see what it can do.

  1. We had Spectrum out again today to connect a new router. However he said our Netgear router was better than the new Spectrum router. He did say we might want to increase our mega bites. We currently have 100 and with ya'll TV, desk top, iPad, 2 phones we could benefit for more. Will think about it b/c it will also increase our plan cost. Some of our problems were user related re the new remote.
