Morning treadmill walk done, mug of Scottish tea two hours ago, then a large glass of vinegar water (try it, you may like it, Sam I Am). 

WiFi is down, restart the device says the Network Diagnostics guide. Can’t do that because Linda is still asleep upstairs where it’s located. So, on the iPad turn off WiFi and 3G comes on. Back on line with iPad 3G.

In the news. Meteorites slam into Russia as meteor seen streaking through the morning sky. Friday 150 foot asteroid will buzz earth, missing by 17150 miles. 

Christopher Dorner’s mother expresses deep sorrow for his actions. Because of the horrific acts he committed the man is no hero, but it shows what comes of racism, which should come as news to nobody.

Carnival Triumph safely in port in Mobile, Alabama. 

Cruises have gotten to be popular and inexpensive all inclusive ways to vacation. We’ve enjoyed three cruises, Disney Carnival Disney. Little interested in another cruise except possibly roundtrip Alaska. Maybe. 

Our other vacation interest is return to Maine to enjoy the craggy coast, clams, lobster, and visit Waldoboro, Maine, originally called Back Bay, where my ancestor Andreas immigrated from Germany in the 1700s. For years it was a major shipbuilding port. George, Andreas’ son, made his way down to Boston, where he became a tailor. German immigrants, they were Lutheran. George Weller’s son George became the first Episcopal priest in the Weller family. I am eighth or ninth. George was the first rector of Christ Church, Vicksburg.

Going to see if Linda is awake. If so, the modem can be rebooted and I can post.

Nope, apparently the modem or router has failed.

Or maybe not. Now the cursed thing is working fine.

Looks to me like instead of Weller, my surname should be Andreason or anglicized Anderson. That way I would have been seated up front all those years at Cove School instead of at the very back. The only person always behind me was Shirley Yates. Yes, Anderson would have been much better.
