hokie carla

9:13 am

hokie carla

9:13 am

9:15 am

hurshy

9:18 am

hurshy

9:18 am

hokie carla

JIC

9:20 am

hurshy

it's frustrating tho, when you want that and aeon and you need 2 of those A and you can't find them

9:20 am

hokie carla

I feel like they have to all be AB

9:21 am

hurshy

name that proper noun! fable guy

9:21 am

9:22 am

hokie carla

phantom wahoo

9:23 am

hurshy

we5 a brand of grill

9:23 am

welki

hokie, how do you access internet on the road? do you have starlink? we have a ton of data on our phones (and can tether), but it's pretty slow much of the time

9:23 am

hokie carla

oh duh, we just had that recently

9:23 am

welki

... and heber, utah was a great place to fish!

9:24 am

hokie carla

we do not have starlink just because most of our localish camping in very in the woods. I've heard that is better now since there are way more satellites but I still see people have their receivers like next to the road, etc

9:25 am

hokie carla

we usually just tether with our unlimited verizon but I did buy a hotspot for our trip this past summer.

9:25 am

hokie carla

It is supposed to pick up the best signal from any carrier

9:26 am

hokie carla

we found on our trip it was usually just picking up AT&T and there were a couple of spots that had nothing.

9:27 am

hokie carla

you can get US plans or use it globally

9:27 am

hokie carla

look up simo or solis

9:27 am

rururocks

starlink has a musky connection

9:27 am

welki

we can change carriers on our phones (ATT, T-Mobile and Verizon - sometimes others, but I don't recognize them)

9:28 am

hokie carla

everyone we've asked at campgrounds that has starlink loves it

9:29 am

welki

i've heard that, too - but i've seen the price go up and tbh, i dislike elon and have no desire to add to his billionareness

9:30 am

rururocks

I won't give him a dime of my money

9:31 am

hokie carla

how do you feel about bezos? didn't amazon launch some sats this summer for sat internet?

9:31 am

rururocks

I don't support amazon either

9:31 am

welki

hi ru - enjoyed my first persimmon of the year yesterday

9:31 am

hurshy

phantom: berries

9:31 am

rururocks

oh nice welki.. do you get fuji persimmons up there? they're wonderful

9:31 am

hokie carla

well that was more a question for welki

9:32 am

welki

fuyu - which sounds like i'm cursing, but they're delicious

9:32 am

rururocks

oh right fuyu

9:32 am

hokie carla

is that a mix of fuji and something else? I don't know persimmons at all

9:32 am

welki

i've reconciled with myself with bezos :)

9:33 am

hokie carla

yeah, living in the bo7 I have to use amazon

9:34 am

welki

i'd never had one until last winter - we get here at the tail end of the season (i think), but the guy at the vegetable stand sells them. have to be careful, though - i read that they can cause some intestinal rumblings

9:35 am

rururocks

I make a pomegranate/fuyu persimmon salad that is really tasty

9:36 am

hurshy

tasty tasty tasty!

9:36 am

welki

ohhhh, sounds lovely, and beautiful! i have a neighbor who has a pomegranate tree and she's giving them away

9:36 am

hokie carla

name that word associated with Indiana!

9:37 am

welki

hoosier

9:37 am

hokie carla

ding ding ding

9:37 am

rururocks

i think if you peel the fuyu they affect the stomach less

9:37 am

rururocks

it is a gorgeous salad with endive and a lemon balsamic

9:37 am

rururocks

dressing

9:38 am

welki

<-- will continue believing that more than one per day will cause internal volcanos

9:38 am

hokie carla

I have problems with apples and my friend said to start peeling them and that has helped

9:38 am

welki

that's an interesting combo - tart, sweet and a little bitter

9:38 am

hurshy

that's funny because whenever my tummy feels a little upset from motion sickness or something, apples always SETTLE it

9:39 am

rururocks

that's what I'd be pectin

9:39 am

hokie carla

when I have that I like crackers or a greasy cheeseburger :D

9:39 am

hurshy

grease would make it worse for me

9:40 am

rururocks

I don't handle grease well

9:40 am

hurshy

phantom: siren

9:40 am

welki

Hanging in there. Hubs is now in Memory Care since I kept getting hurt trying to lift him after he’d fallen. Luckily, we’re in the same building, so I can go see him everyday without having to drive now.

3:55 pm

origami

It's been a long road for you guys. It's nice he is getting the care he needs and that you are so close by.

3:57 pm

Nef

And he can’t be snitching sweets all thee time so his blood dugar is better controlled & that helps his mentation. It’s working out for now but MAN! It’s expensive!

Areyou retired yet?

3:58 pm

origami

That's a good thing
