Christmas gatherings / shed update

[Yesterday: 3.5 miles]

Yesterday evening we went to Starkville for the Penenger Family gift opening.  We ate pizza and opened presents and had a very nice time.

This evening we went to a small-group church function and had a nice meal, some Christmas-y games and a white-elephant type gift exchange.

Our next Christmas event is on Christmas day.

On the transmitter shed update:  We were able to pull the fiber optic cable and I messed it up.  Not only did I mess up the cable itself, I think I ordered the wrong kind.  I was talking to a local technician about fixing the broken cable and he said it would be cheaper to order another.  I looked at the specification of what I ordered, and it was not what I thought it was.  There are some subtle differences and I got the wrong one.

So, I’m working on ordering another cable.  With the holidays I think it may be delayed a bit. So this weekend we may run regular Cat-5 network cable in the conduit just to get something going. We will see.
