21/10: The Count Down is On

Posted by: The Agnew Family
Six days and counting .... well at least that's the target date for heading south. Life has been trying to slow us down --- Zaph's eye problem, my computer needing to be replaced, Ed's cold (hope I don't catch it and hope he gets better soon).
Last Sunday evening I turned my laptop on and couldn't see the screen, rebooted and still couldn't read the screen --- yes I checked the contrast etc. Turned out the "luminator" (that's what Ed called it) died. It's a six year old computer so we didn't even attempt to look for parts. By plugging in an external monitor I was able to get everything I needed off of the hard drive. I am now the proud owner of a new HP laptop that I think we've got up and running with everything I'll need for the winter.
We had early Christmas dinner at Anne & Victor's house. Another great meal Anne! I got up to get my camera and looked out the window. To my amazement there were four deer walking out of the field onto the lawn. The sun was setting and we were in the house so the pictures aren't great.
Zaph enjoying his Christmas present from Anne and Victor.
Happy Boy, Anne spoils him.
