A couple nights ago I left the house of one of John's friends and decided to call Sara on my way back to my parents'. Well. At one point my phone claimed three (out of four) bars of service and said "no service." Right. Then I drove through downtown, which was completely out of the way, to see if I'd have service there. And I did, for a second, but there was a dog standing in the middle of the road, so I didn't want to call then. In the middle of the road. It just stood there and stared at me.

And it was soon joined by what looked like a German Shepard.

At that point, stopped waiting for these two enormous dogs to get off the street, my phone had full service. Then I turned. And had none.

Going back through town on the exact same road as before, I had full service. On the other side of the street...none.

Welcome to rural Tennessee.
