Gina,

Newer Apple cellular telephones (and some of their watches) may have a satellite emergency call and text facility, currently at no additional charge.  This may be worth investigating for you.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

You accomplish so much in a weekend and I wrote a funny music review and ordered Pizza. One of use makes the other look lazy. I will let you guess which one it is. I did go pick it up if that throws some doubt on the answer, it was a drive thru though.

Drive thru pizza?!! You Americans and your ways 🤣!

Having said that, there is a drive thu Greggs bakery round the corner from me so I shouldn't mock!

Gina,

I never heard of drive through pizza, where you order and wait in the vehicle line for the pizza.  Perhaps a version of a pickup order, where you do not have to go inside to pickup the pizza.

The drive through is a huge waster of fuel.  But try to outlaw it and there will be uproars.

So you order pizza online. then you drive over and pick it up at the drive through. Its very efficient.

Quote from: Finally Anna on October 05, 2026, 08:31:06 AMGina, how large is the property?
We have 114 acres. But the interesting thing is land is measured flat, so with all the hills it is a bit more. Think of a hypotenuse of a triangle.

There is a drive through at Gino's pizza in town. Only a 20 minute drive.

I have always wondered if I could make a 911 call. But how do you find out? You can't try it, to see if it works.

Cops are only showing up because of a report of possible pizza
And then one day you stop to find,
10 years have got behind you,
no one told you when to run,
you missed the starting gun

See for Apple brand telephones:

Some cellular provider(s) provide satellite service for $5 or so extra per month on some monthly plans if you want to make any call or text when a satellite is available in areas where cellular service is not provided.  One of those carriers may be T-mobile and I think it may use Starlink.  Do your research on this for costs and providers.

I looked into T-mobile. They indeed use Starlink, but only to text, no calls yet. Until then I, and most everyone I know, rely on internet calling.

Maybe you and your neighbors could use FRS or GMRS radios to keep in contact with each other for emergencies?

If there is a big emergency that affects a lot of people it is likely that any satellite service will become overloaded and unusable.

If it is remote emergency communication you want I wouldn't be looking to save money. I would go for the Garmin in reach 2. You want to be sure it is going to work when you really need it and there are other less important ways to save cash if you need to. Garmin is the market leader for a reason.

Plus it doubles as a GPS tracker so you can record your trail ride days if that floats your boat.

  This house project is a comedy of errors. Two steps forward, one step back. When I roughed in the electric, we had not decided on any of the finish stuff. Now when I went to install the medicine cabinet in the master bath room, I found out the boxes for the light above it are to low. It didn't help we went with a massive cabinet and fancy sconce style lights. I had planned on a light bar and a traditional cabinet. Anyway, cut open the wall and relocated everything, spackle, and repaint. Just another one of those days. Kitchen appliances are to come today, as are all the doors. I have been busy trimming all the windows and base moldings. Couldn't find any bullnose trim for window sills, so I'm making my own with a router. Things are coming together but still much to do.
  Helped out at the community building yesterday, we are decorating for an upcoming halloween party.

Some thing I will find on the Herferod build when I come to assemble it I expect even with a dry build. There's always something that needs altering!
