Bad weather is a coming!

Post by ouachita hiker on Wed Jan 20, 2010 7:32 pm

Well guys we got another round of bad weather coming our way. We made it thru last Aprils tornado
and Janet and I have decided that we aren't going to try to ride it out again in our camper. We are
headed to the restrooms possibly in the next hour. Going to take the lap top and see if I can pick
up my wireless signal there, have gotten it before. Making plans now..

Ok back in the camper and all is safe. That is except Janet's computer. It died but wasn't hooked up to any elec.and everything else is working ok. The router is fine the Hughesnet modum is fine. Got me puzzled but it won't even began to turn on. As far as wireless it didn't happen, no sig at all. As far as what side the pick was a natural, since the storm was coming from the SW we stayed on the NE side (guys side). Purely for safety sake. Any way some wicked lighting and heavy rain but no wind.
