Morning temperature 48F, but it warmed up.
We took a long hike today; too long, in fact. 8 miles, but it included two mountains. The trail is very muddy, which made it slow going. We saw many moose tracks and piles of moose scat. Also saw one scay which was either wolf or a very large coyote. Not dog: full of fur and bones. S's new hiking boots were hurting her ankle, so it really would have been more fun if it were half as long.
A comment out of sequence. Yesterday we ran into a problem with voicemail on our ATT phone. Although I'd been told before we left home that I could use my phone in Canada as at home with no special requirements, when I checked voicemail it asked for a pass code. If I ever had one I didn't still know it, and I've never been asked for a pass code before. So I called ATT support. Instead of giving me a password reset, the tech mistakenly wiped out my voicemail. Then they told me that not only were all current messages erased, there was "no way" to set up voicemail anew until I again had an ATT wireless connection, i.e. maybe 2 months from now. I was not going to accept that situation, so that began what would be several days of repeated calls to ATT customer care, their advanced tech support, international tech support, and the ATT/Ensurion advanced tech support we pay extra for each month. Many dropped calls, many terminal holds, many times told we were out of luck. But I kept trying and made it a game not to let it get me mad. Finally, on May 29, my call to ATT tech support went directly to international tech support for some reason, and the young man said, "I can fix that. I'll set it up and call you in 30 minutes with your new passcode". And he actually did. Haleluia! Nobody has called in some time, but we are out of cell phone coverage so much of the time, voicemail is important. And we're back in business with it.
