A Swedish friend recently sent us this card with a French caption. I’ll translate for you:<\/p>\n

First, you click “Serengeti”, enter, then “satellite view”, enter, then “localize”, click on “gnu”, and then, on the menu, select “recently died”.<\/p>\n

Hey, if vultures in the Serengeti can get good internet, what’s up with our system???? \u00a0We had a few days of lots of time and some money invested when our official tech guy who sold us our current system finally came up with the solution. \u00a0This was after the challenge of “migrating” our main system with Covenant from google to outlook\/ms office. \u00a0Yikes, the hoops we had to jump through for that to work! \u00a0Thankfully we have a couple of guys who walked us through the confusion very kindly and patiently.<\/p>\n

We are thankful to be back online, and hopefully we can stay under our 5 G\/month limit!!! \u00a0Last month it was adequate, so we’ll see now. \u00a0Maybe we can find some roadkill for supper for just a few kilobytes?<\/p>\n
