What kind of internet connection do you have?

Well, :facepalm:, I don't know why I didn't make the connection to do the equivalent on my iPad all these many months which saves it to Photos. All those posted pics that I couldn't view...

So we now have a sarcasm emoticon, nice.

Nice area. Bet you can see the stars real well.

No sarcasm at all, I'm serious which is why I face palmed myself.

Yes, Boonieland. Just last year DSL became available here. Stargazing is indeed good here.

When we first evac'd here (Central AR, where I have friends from way back) from the New Orleans area after Katrina, one of my checkboxes (when we were home-hunting) was a requirement that cable or DSL internet was available, especially since I was going to likely be working from the area for a good spell (long story, and end result is I'm still here). I was flummoxed that more areas didn't have either but, as you said; boonieland -- within a mile off the interstate, pretty typical (if a bit sparse at the time) subdivisions, but add a few miles and you're in farm country or forest. I really like it, though the area I'm in is getting pretty crowded now.

I really thought six or so years ago that satellite or OTA internet (and I'm not talking about HughesNet or WildBlue, which are complete shit) would be the norm by now, and that it wouldn't matter where you lived; you'd have on-par-to-cable (then) internet access.

But can you see a pizza place from your house? A coffee joint with great bakery? And a local pub that gives you free drinks when the local team scores?

(See, you're not the only one who can sneak brag...)
