Friendly Neighbors


I really have to mention how wonderful our neighbors are at this park.  John’s computer has been glitchy for a while.  I’ve tried various methods to fix it, but nothing seemed to work.  It reached the point where he couldn’t get any internet at all.  I was all for buying a new computer.  Instead a neighbor took a look at it.  He works full time on computers.  He found all kinds of viruses (we had Norton but it was corrupted).  Since we only use that computer for internet, he was able to wipe it and put on Linux.  Instead of being the oldest and slowest of our computers, it’s now the fastest.  Our neighbor spent several hours on this and did this for free.  THANKS!

Another friendly option I recently found.  Maybe you've heard of couchsurfing.  It's where you can find free places to stay around the world and also host people in your home.  Now there is a website for RV'ers.  You can stay in someone's driveway for free or host someone at your home.  You can go to http://www.boondockerswelcome.com/  to get more info.  Sounds pretty cool!
