Went for an early morning bike ride, there were only 3 of us today. We picked a new route and went mainly east, in fact well past Signal Butte and made about 8 miles. The only problem with the route was the wind came up, so it was not only uphill, but we had a nice steady breeze in our face. I can't believe Larry was up for this ride, but he led the way, so there we were.
When I got back there were a couple of Marg's buddies here wanting to see what was wrong with their tablets. One could not do anything with hers, the other could not access facebook. This was a great example of the unknowing being led by the unwilling and unknowing. Then Marg went out back and brought the neighbour for reinforcements. We managed to stumble on a video on the one tablet that wouldn't do anything. It was lengthy and somehow she had 3 copies of it, so it took over 10 GB of space. Deleted them and then rebooted and voila, it worked. the other we messed with for a while and then said lets try the reboot, and the same result, it now works. Go figure, the oldest strategy known to computer users, turn it off for a bit and then restart it still works.
It was lunch and then we went out to a couple of building supply places. Marg got some wallpaper that she wants to use on the kitchen wall over the counters here. Sort of like a backsplash I guess. A project for a rainy day & there are some forecast for next week, so we will see. Elmer stopped in to visit with his former neighbours, so we chatted him for a while. He knew Marg right off and I think he knew me and after a bit of chat did for sure. He and Marg used to eat dates off one of the palm trees in the park & I used to kid them about getting together for a date.
When we got back it was time for happy hour where there was a small group tonight. Probably because a bunch were headed out to supper at the Chinese buffet on Signal Butte. It was great food and I had forgotten how good, so really enjoyed it. They had crab tonight, so Marg's appy was crab legs and garlic butter. We had about 2 dozen from the park out for the dinner, so it was a fun night. We rode with Kenny, he likes to take 2 other couples in his SUV, do a group thing as it were.
