Ah, that's good. Last thing I want is to run that point into the ground...
Remarkably, I did see a company truck next to a backhoe that was digging a large hole at the end of my road as I returned from running errands.
It would go against my cynical nature to think they were working on upgrading the abysmally slow/ridiculously overpriced internet all the way out here, but I'll make a note to stop by the office and see if
maybe there's a chance in hell there might be something better coming.
