49 degrees F at the farm July 30, 2014

This morning it was 49 degrees F at the farm with a little bit of fog.  Yesterday morning it was 56 degrees.  Knoxville set record low temperatures for these dates yesterday and today. 

Fiber to the Farm

Highland Telephone Cooperative installed a corning fiber optic line up to the house yesterday.  They had a big crew, perhaps 10 men, equipment ranged from a 4 wheeler to pickup trucks, trailers, a trencher/plow, and a bucket truck.  It is possible that we will have high speed internet sometime in the next year. 

We presently have a DSL connection with a maximum speed of 1150 kbps, actual bandwidth is often much less.
