I joke sometimes about our 21st Century Homestead, where we use outhouses and heat with wood, yet communicate via Internet and cell phone. Some days, though, our technology gets knocked back a bit by conditions.
Saturday, we received three phone calls. Actually, we got four, as one caller tried both of our phones. We consider this noteworthy, particularly since it wasn’t anyone’s birthday or anniversary here. This many calls in a day seems overwhelming to us!
Oddly, even though one of us was near the phones when each of these calls came in, we heard no ringtones.
