Internet Went Down

When the Internet goes down, it is interesting to see how dependent we are when we can't use it.

This was the case all day yesterday and most of today. I was told yesterday that the problem stretched from Gallup to the west (18 miles) to Thoreau to the east (15 miles). At least that's what the State Police told me yesterday.

This started around 8:30 yesterday morning when we had a 5-10 minute power outage. I don't know if this was related, but the Internet here went down at the same time.

This affected businesses as they couldn't process credit cards. People had to pay for gasoline with cash. 

So far, it seems to be working. 

In the meantime, I barbecued some cheeseburgers today. It is around 80° outside.
