It was a cool night as we drove back, but I stopped and took a photo of the lovely scene.  <\/p>\n<p>Today it&#8217;s warmed up a bit and over the weekend it&#8217;s going to be into the 80&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>We finally had our phone service restored, but we&#8217;ve already decided to leave Speednet and go with Vonage.  It&#8217;ll still be a VoIP (voice over internet phone) but Vonage has lots of extra features and is a little cheaper.  This past week has showed us how vulnerable we are with Speednet&#8217;s phone service.  At least with Vonage, we can do a lot from the internet such as:  turn off voice mail, check messages, see who has called, change our phone to forward to our cell phone, have 911 service, and for less than $5 monthly get a second &#8220;virtual&#8221; phone for this area code so folks can reach us here without calling long-distance.  It took me all morning to get everything straightened out and get it set up.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;ll take up to 10 days to move our regular Saginaw phone number to this number, but in the meanwhile, we&#8217;ll be able to use the phone through Speednet.  We&#8217;re looking forward to those extra features.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night we had an ok time at Rockin Rendezvous at the South Club.
