Just wanted to pass along some info for those of you who might be in our area.
Remember when I told you about the amish auction around here a few years ago? You can read part one and part two to refresh your memory.
Well another one is coming up tomorrow.
The Spring Crofton Consignment Auction will start at 9 a.m. on Saturday, April 19, 2008 at the Crofton Amish Community Center. There will be a little of everything there - farm equipment, animals, construction equipment, hand tools, household items, and more.
Then NEXT weekend (April 25 - 27) is Camper Appreciation Weekend at Kentucky State Parks. Camping fees are actually half price! You can find details on the Kentucky State Parks website.
And finally, if you really want to have a good time, stop by my house to watch my head spin off my shoulders as I try to cope with life without my satellite internet. Let this serve as a warning to all of you with satellite internet. The Fair Usage Act is NOT your friend. Apparently we have hogged too much of Wildblue's bandwidth so they have clamped off our connection so that we can't even get email. Grumble, grumble, grumble... And we pay them VERY well for this service that we NOW can't use and don't know when we'll be able to again.
Right now, we're just hoping that Bellsouth will bless our area with DSL service sometime soon. I won't be able to drop Wildblue fast enough.
But I'm not bitter or anything really....
Alas, if you don't see me commenting on your blogs, just know it's not by choice. I just can't get blogs to load with this slow dial-up connection. Maybe I'll go do some laundry....
