Older Folks and Vaping Back Porch - Part Seven

[3mg Meniere]

I'm south of 70. Barely

I am north of 90. So close I can hear the traffic rumbling.

 

[Kenna]

There are no freeways linking here. Best we have is State Hwy 35. It goes north into Houston & south to the Gulf at Freeport. 288 is eest of us, & I45 is east. FM's is all we have coming into Alvin.

Checking in. I'm doing fine. Lost my confidence a little for a couple of days but back to me with a few more aches and pains. Got Ginny a new phone yesterday, hers was really screwing up for a long time. She basically uses it for phone calls and text messages and pictures. This one they had on sale at Verizon and it really is a nice phone. It is an LG K20 V marked down $100 to $168. Actually the cheapest smart phone they have. I was expecting not as good of a phone as it is. It is amazing little phone. Well not really little 5.5" screen. I use mine 10 times more then her so I have one coming tomorrow. Got a refurbished iPhone 6s Plus directly from Apple. New phone warranty. Paid $569 I think it was with 64gb of memory. My Gdaughter talked me into it she loves hers and had it a year and a half. She has the same phone. A new on is around $800+ so I think I got a good deal. It is an unlocked phone so when we went into Verizon yesterday to pick hers up they gave me a new Sim Card and won't be stuck with all those stinking google apps. She uses Google Photos but it didn't sneakily download a bunch more google apps. I use Google Photos also and love it. Well it looks like all our Porch Friends made it through the mess that from what I hear is still going on. Like that song, How high is the water, It's 6 feet high and rising. Other then that trying hard to not watch the news. Better mood all around that way. The kids are going to San Diego for the weekend just to relax by the ocean so looking forward to using Face Time with them. Heard it is great. Thats one of the main reasons they went with Apple, they could use that when he was in Kuwait and Iraq, now they both love everything about them over Android.
Well I've gone on long enough will talk to you all later. Bye for now.

Small world..........my dad and his siblings were raised in Alvin MANY years ago. I was born in south Louisiana and lived most of my young years in Beaumont.

Nope just makes it a little harder to get started in the morning. Trying to make it over to the house for my morning Tweet session.

 

[2legsshrt]

@MikeE3 Already got a question, when they say press down or press up does that mean there is a little arrow there or do they mean swipe up or down. Sounds to me if you touch the app it shows you that little triangle up or down is that right? Sounds like I'll have lots to keep me busy. Oh and since you are an iPhone user will be checking with you often sort of like personal tech support. Ha Ha

 

[2legsshrt]

Nevermind I enabled notifications and it shows you. Cool

 

[2legsshrt]

I know there is a way to save a particular message in here to find it later. Never use it and can't remember what it is.

Hey theres tons of stuff on YT also. When I actually have the phone in my hot little hand will make it a little easier. I figured this phone was really popular, not quite everything the 7 does but more then I will learn how to use in my lifetime I'm sure. I love learning stuff like this the time just flies by when I'm doing it, sort of like learning new features on a YiHi device X infinity.

Plus when I get home and get my new hearing aids, I'm going to get the ones with the best BT and sound quality available at the VA so this will be fun. Well Ginny just came home and told me the Seahawks are playing tonight so thats what we'll be doing.

For the time being, Henry's hard grape soda has moved into first place on my list of flavored hard sodas, ciders and the like. It's low octane, just 4.2% alcohol, but there is no alcohol taste that I can detect at all. It's also a couple bucks cheaper per 6-pack than the least expensive of the hard root beers. I've tried Henry's hard orange soda version but I don't much like it.

 

[DancingHeretik]

Grape soda was my favorite as a kid. Remember Grapette?

Nope....never heard of that one... My favorite as a kid was Nehi Orange Soda in an icy cold glass bottle...
