"One less bell to answer . . ."

It’s true. We have joined the ranks of those using only cell phones for voice communication. Please remove our “4500” number from your contacts list.

Actually, we’ve contemplated this move for some time. The land phone seldom rang, and when it did, it was usually not a personal call. Some months back we removed long distance service, and we only needed a little push to be finished with land service altogether. That came three weeks ago in the form of a buzz on the line. An appointment for repair was scheduled, but CenturyLink failed to show.

The only problem is that we don’t have great cell service at either house. The farm sits where service is marginal and the gully location in town isn’t good either. 

By the way, it was unbelievably difficult to unsubscribe from CenturyLink's service. KW
