Google Fiber

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

The title of this post is Google Fiber, but it could have easily been "Very Cold".  This morning, it was 23 degrees on the walk to school.  It was not windy so I don't think it was any colder than that.  But it was cold.  Rachel seemed very uncomfortable.  Lizzy and the boys didn't mind.

I had a meeting where I gave a demo when we got home.  Then Rachel and I went to the airport.  Rachel had a meeting to get her Global Entry.  My meeting is scheduled for January.  We were hoping they could fit me in but they couldn't.

We stopped at Academy on the way to get hand and foot warmers.

Just after lunch, Google came to the house.  We had schedule Google Fiber to be installed.  With that we'd get 1 Gigabit download and upload speeds.  For comparisons sake, typical internet speeds are between 10 and 20 Megabits.  So this is 1000 Megabits.  I have been looking forward to this.  The installer was very good.  He knew what he was doing.  He actually came early which is a first for this type of service.  Aaron came over and we talked through some stuff with the installer.  Papa also stopped by to see how they were setting it up.  Aaron and I are going to put some hardware for work in the house since the internet speed will now be that good here.

Rachel went to pick up the boys since we were still dealing with the installation.

For dinner, we had some coupons and a gift certificate to Taco Cabana so Noah and I went and picked up the food and brought it home.

The boys will be getting ready for bed soon.

Until next time...
