It worked. 

Turns out the phone wiring in the farmhouse needed to be reconfigured, so that was done today. And here I am, images virtually flying onto the screen.  I hardly know where to begin.  So much has happened. Since we have been all about apples lately, and because these make me smile, I am sharing the "pretty" orchard pictures of the little girls who daily want to gather more into their baskets and beg big boys to take them over to the trees. 

These were taken earlier in the season before the cold set in.  Like I said, so much has happened.  It will be fun to catch up.
