In Grand Junction

We made it to Grand Junction on Tuesday.........and are now parked in side yard at daughters house. They added another 3 stall garage on side of the 2 stall garage and we weren't sure if there would be room for us. It is working out great..........only longer walk now to get into house.

Decided to set up our DirectTV will we are here, and have been working on it since Tuesday when we got here. Finally, yesterday I decided to give up on the DVR and use the basic box and see if I could get the roof dish to work. We had the dish with tripod hooked up and could get no signal. It was really weird as I got it to correct evaluation and was turning it slowly back and forth and watching and listening for a signal to come and all of a sudden............a station came on the screen. Never did get the signal................but we now have the satellite working and I am going to play around with the one for bedroom today. Hoping to get the DVR set up there...........but I am going to move the portable dish to a different spot. I think it is in line with trees where it is.

We haven't done much here........after making a lot of trips here over they years.....we really don't think there is much to see that we haven't already. Yesterday was spent catching up on the laundry and working on the satellite dish. Everyone is working, going to school or playing gulf here. I did spend most of yesterday on line and getting my gps maps updated. It took all day to download onto the lap top then another couple hours getting it onto GPS. It is done now and we are set to visit new places. Wish I had done it before we left last October, as we could of used it a number of times. Hadn't been updated since we bought it back in 2006.

Till next time..........happy trails
