We are getting ready for our summer vacation in the boonies with no electricity or wifi (except for a small generator and free wifi at the laundromat in town, which is a several hours trip).

So I'm just reminding posters here if they have questions, now is the time to ask them.

I'd also appreciate others here taking up the slack and helping newbies. We should be back around Sept 2nd, give or take a week. Alot depends on Oreo, our 14yr old cat, and if she worsens with her cancer.
As of now, the Vet says we can take her...after all the blood work he checked out 2 wks ago. I think this will be her last trip, as she has outlived all predictions. Her photo is in my album along with other vacation photos too..in all 3 albums.

We go to Northern Lake Huron in the UP of Michigan...as shown in my current siggie pic. The island our family owns privately is one of the few boreal forests left in the US. This is what a boreal forest is:

I'll be putting up a new avatar as a reminder and new siggie, a couple of days before we leave. You can send me PMs still, as when we go to get food or the laundromat, I try the wifi there if it is working. I check my PMs first. So that is the best way to reach me. There may be a delay of up to a week however, for any answers. Many questions can be answered by using the SEARCH function here... its link is in my siggie too.
Our target leave date is still not set, Maybe July 21, 23 or 28, depending on what goes on here. The 23 is the most likely however.

If anyone posts to me here, while I am gone, please bump up this post.
I'd appreciate it.
