Rainy Day Preparations

Two days to takeoff!  Hope we remember the important things, at least most of them.  Sometimes it is easy to forget that we are not going off into the outback for years.  There will be stores most of the places we go, in case we forget something.

Today it has rained most of the day.  A check of the Panorama School site on KCCI's Schoolnet Website shows we have received almost three fourths of an inch. I hope it doesnt rain so much we cant get the motorhome out it's parking place behind the garage.

Some of the things we thought we should get before we leave were some new racks for the Sharp combination microwave/convection oven. They arrived today, along with the last part I needed for our cell phone/air card wireless amplifier system. I bought the parts on ebay, but they are made by Wilson Electronics.  One of the issues we have deal with with Ann working remotely, is to make sure she has cell phone and computer connectivity. Ann decided to upgrade her cell phone to a Blackberry Tour, and to get a Verizon mi-fi wireless router. To extend cell phone, and mi-fi coverage I purchased a wireless amplifier system, which includes a Wireless Dual-Band SOHO Cellular/PCS Amplifier (801245),  a RV / Trucker Spring-Mount Cellular Antenna (301133) a, Dual-Band Panel Antenna (301135), some cable, a bracket, and a couple of connectors.  I havent got it all assembled yet, but it should extend our range by quite a bit.

Well I am going to post this, so I can get to the Post Office and mail off some winter stuff to Adam.

More Later,
