This came from Pat Parizo on Sandy Beach Road this afternoon:

Hi Jane,

Thanks for the information in the blog. I contacted Fairpoint and they came today and replaced the modem and everything is working fine now. The Tech. told George that there is a substation at the end of the road and they changed a part last week and now customers with wireless are having problems. Their list of wireless customers is not complete therefore they cannot notify customers. Our thought is Fairpoint will be getting a lot of calls in the Spring. Like you said, we have no complaints with Fairpoints service.

Thanks again
Pat

I'm really glad Pat and George were able to get their computer problem solved. We are still waiting for Staples to work on Fred's - he called today and was told there are something like eight computers ahead of him, so I guess it'll be a while.

Fred made a big hole in the wood pile today. One more morning should finish it up. And I just heard from Bill Rossi - they got the hole drilled for the statue without any problems, and he said he will send pictures soon . . .
