Re: “ PLease keep in touch when possible. You will be sorely missed.”

Thank you for the kind words. I'll miss you guys, too. I'll check in periodically. Visits to the large library in a neighboring town have always been among our favorite ways to get away from it all - and the library has free wireless.

Re: “Does your cell service have unlimited data (internet)with it. IF so, and IF you can get a connection signal in N.H.”

I don't carry a smart phone. The Blackberry I referenced earlier was work-assigned. It's been returned, and I have no intention of getting anything else that is more than a phone.

Property #1 has a house but very little cell reception. We usually have to walk 100 feet to the street to get a signal. My wife, however, thinks that Broadband internet is now available to our address. I don't quite believe it, but we'll see. Even if it's true, though, I bet it will be many months before they can hook us up. Things don't ever happen quickly up there.

Property #2 has excellent cell reception - probably as a result of the tiny nearby town. The prospects for getting cable there are really poor, but maybe DSL will work.

Home internet is more important to my wife than it is to me. I actually want to get back to basics and stop spending so much time on-line. It's a fake life. The real thing is short enough as it is and infinitely better.

That said, the internet is a FANTASTIC research tool, and if I can get it I will. But from property #2 I don't think it will happen for many years. I don't even have a barn there yet, much less a house! Your smartphone solution could be the best one, and my wife does have one...

Thanks again.

Does your cell service have unlimited data (internet)with it.

IF so, and IF you can get a connection signal in N.H., one thing you can do for internet service is hook your phone to a computer and use it as a terminal.
Here is a link.

here is 4 ways to do this:

SO, the hope is if you have a cell signal for your phone and no internet service, you can use your phone as your internet service for your laptop.....

Just trying to help keep you in touch!

PLease stay safe and keep your self defense close at hand when working in wooded area around your new location. Never know who or what is going to surprise you ..

I wish you and yours the very best success in filling your dreams and plans in prepping. PLease keep in touch when possible. You will be sorely missed.

Keep encouraging Joey. He can become whatever he dreams if he has drive and ambition. NOW is the time to prepare for those dreams and goals.

Again, best wishes for you and your family..

Sincerely,

micro
