It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood with lots of sun and no wind. Cheri and Bev went shopping this morning and Paul picked me up to go to Lowe’s to get a bag of QuickC ret so we could concrete the pole in the ground for the satellite dish. When we got back we went to work on setting it up. We found a spot where we thought it would clear the trees. I had Paul hold the pole with the dish and I went inside to see if we had a signal, only had to turn it a bit before we had a signal. So we marked the spot and dug a hole for the pole. Dropped it in and poured the cement. I went back inside to check the signal one more time and we had a signal of 95 percent which was very good. Now all we have to do is let the concrete set up and then we can finish installing the cable. After lunch Cheri called and her sewing machine was fixed. So we headed to Lakeland to pick it up and then we stopped back by Arnold’s car repair shop to make an appointment to have a bunch of work done on Grandma’s van (new brakes, fan belt, timing belt, struts, shocks, front end alignment, wheels balanced and oil change). With 135,000 miles it was time to have some work done on it. When we got home Paul was already burying the cable for the satellite dish. I helped him finish and hooked the cable to the dish. The project came out looking very nice. Bud stopped over and we plan on taking a motorcycle ride tomorrow.
