It only took AT &T 8 days, but we are back on the Internet. Time to catch up a little. Sunday the 11th, we had enough music and decided to head down the road. We left about 2:00 and traveled about 300 miles down the road to Jackson , Ga. Spent the night in a Flying J truck stop.
Monday morning, we got going and arrived in Satsuma about 3:00 PM. It was about 88degrees and very humid. We started unloading, when we discovered the house had been entered and some things were missing.The screen in my office window was on the floor and the jalousie windows had been forced open enough that a child or small person could get through.
They took our 25" tv, a crummy sound system, a vcr-dvd combo player, a computer monitor, an old dvd player/recorder, some pocket change and do not know what else, if anything. We have no idea when it happened or who did it. Charlene thinks it was a scuzz family that is renting nearby. We called the sherriff and reported it. They left the musical instruments, amplifiers, several 19" tvs, several 13" tvs.
The water was on but the gas had been turned off in June. The nice gas company was letting us make minimum payments for gas we could not use.
I quickly put the room a/c unit in the bedroom so we could sleep ok. Since we had run out of propane and could not refill due to a faulty reset button, our freezer/rerfigerator had warmed up some but the food that was in was still frozen cold enough to be ok. Some food in the cooler was spoiled and had to be thrown out.
The house refrigerator started ok, as did the freezer in the shed. The car started right up and ran well. continued unloading in the heat. Will catch up tomorrow.
Entry 5?
