Good Fences

So, thought my computer woes were over. It isn't as bad, but I'm still having trouble with the internet stuttering. I'll be trying to post and it will go off for a minute or two and then come back. Our home telephone is through the cable company also and it does the same thing. When talking to Punky Doodle, I can hear her, but she can't hear me. So, I say, "Hello, hello,  hello," until she can hear me again. It is very frustrating. I don't have time to spend hours on the phone waiting for a representative to come on the line!

I like finding these huge old concrete posts. This one is just around the corner from where my parents lived.

I feel your pain on internet woes. There have been some surprises on my end, too, that make me pine for the city house sometimes.
That huge concrete post is a sentinel in time. I wonder how old it is?

Sorry about the internet trouble. We are so used to it now and if something happens that we get knocked off the net, we are unhappy campers. Hope they get it fixed soon.
Love your fence photo.

I like the cement posts too. I hate phone problems - we got rid of land line - now at mercy of cell...goods and bads...

I love seeing those old posts standing too. I feel your internet pain. Ours stutters some too, but sounds like yours is a lot worse.

Computers are great when they work, but will drive you crazy otherwise. I have more than my share of issues. Seems something new everyday. I love the countryside fences. Your fences remind of places where I once lived.

Nice bit of greenery with your fence.

Too bad about the computer troubles. Hope it will iron itself out soon. It can be so frustrating at times. Your images makes me want to go for a walk down that road. I like the wild look of the fencing and is so green where you are.

That is ONE great looking fence. I don't think I have ever seen one like this...it looks like it has been around a LONG time!

Just my kind of image to capture!

Great shot. I love the long angle and how the Concrete post has all the vines growing around it and the pretty clover in the grass next to the fence.

Computer problems are a true pain of modern life. Hope yours are over soon! Nice fence. That post isn't going anywhere soon.

I don't see those posts very often, and they are usually very old. Sorry about your internet woes..just went through all that here. We had the service guy out three times and I still think there is something wrong somewhere.

At night, our connection goes on and off. My computer guy says that if it is usually at the same time every day, it is someone in the neighborhood on their computer. Their stronger signal overpowers ours. I hope you find out what is going on soon!

That's cool! I haven't seen any of those here.

I like that old concrete post too! My home phone is also through the cable company and every time we get a hard rain, the phone goes dead. I've had them out here several times and they can never find anything wrong. It's a little frustrating!

Jenn Jilks said...

Ah, me. Such is the phone system... Good luck with all this! Love the fence!

That is a gorgeous fence view!

Sorry to hear you're still having phone and internet issues. That could really be a problem (the phone) if there was an emergency. Hope you're able to get it fixed soon.
