Hey All,
As you can see from my video in today’s blog, I’m pretty much established back in the RV park on MacDill AFB.
I chose the annex section of the park for this 6-month stay. The other section of the park where I stayed last time is about 1/2 miles away. Although the section that I’m now in is about 1/2 miles from the beach on base, rather than within walking distance, yhe section that I am now in it is much nicer I think than the other section as the RV spots have a better layout and the distance between each RV is greater, allowing for greater privacy. As all the snow birds start comming in over the next 2 weeks, it will be much better to be in a place where I don’t feel to close to one another (like sardines). I haven’t stayed here in the park when is at full capacity, so I thought this would be a much better option.
My brother Jan helped me the other day with sucessfully getting my RV out of storage and into my new spot as well a fixing a couple of my electrical issues.
The only negative thing is that today I had all kinds of problems trying to get cable TV but later found out that there was an issue within the park with the cable TV service and it might be some time for it to get resolved. Has to do with the government’s contract negotiation with Spectrum Cable. So for now and for the indefinite future I have very limited TV (only a few channels) and must rely on the receptiom from my antenna to view those few channels. I hope the service can eventually be improved so I can once again have better TV channel selection. For now I will have to watch alot of DVDs to keep me entertained.
Will spend a quiet weekend just relaxing in my new surrondings. Don’t feel like getting involved in any meetups as yet. Have alot of doctors appointmemts next week to make some decisions on how we best proceed with treating some of my on-going health challenges. Time will tell?
Have a great weekend!

Glad you are back home, Gary. When you say you are having cable installed does that mean the the problem you write about is resolved?

No. Apparently there is an issue between the military agency and cable company as to the scope of service that can be provided here. Recently alot changed to deigital and has reduced for some reason the reception of TV. Hope they eventually resolve this. Would be nice to habe more chsnnels available, like CNN, Etc

I am glad to hear you are back at the base and at a better location, Gary – enjoy! Best of luck and many blessings with your health issues!
As to cable TV, we use a little gadget called Roku that let’s you stream more channels you have ever imagined existed in the world. It costs $14.99 at Bransmart USA or at https://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/store/product/roku-reg-stick-media-stream-express-player where you can order it online.
Have a great weekend,
