Guess who got a smart phone?!

Went over to Sparks to see what was going on...nothing..turns out the Bourbon Street Casino closed down..such a shame as someone put so much $$ into getting it going again and last year it was open and appeared to be thriving during the Rib Cook Off.  So we left there and headed for Reno and stopped at the Peppermill, just to see some cars.  We don't like going during the big Hot August Nights but looking at it while it's setting up is good enough for me!  

Had a nice lunch at Great Basin and then headed to Carson City to see if the MIFI had come in yet.  Well, it hadn't but while we were there Ken asked "what would it cost to switch to a smart phone for Shirley?"....uh oh...So left there with a new phone..surprise, surprise.  

Played with it a bit after we got home..

Yesterday I did some checking and spent a ton of time on the phone with Jeep customer service to see if what Carson Jeep did to my car was covered under the lifetime powertrain warranty.  Turns out it's not..but can't say we didn't try.  Then I decided to go ahead and file a claim with our homeowners for the loss of the computer last week and also Progressive for the window that we had fixed.  Needless to say the day was spent on the phone.uhhh..

So I ran to the grocery store and left Ken with my phone as we were waiting for a callback from Carson Jeep.  The point of this story,  we spent about 30 minutes trying to figure out how to answer the darn smartphone...it's definitely smarter than we are!!  

Today, getting ready to pick up Seth and Mason..still not sure about Adam, i'll call on my way over and see.  Darn teachers that assign homework over summer!  He has honors English and History this year as a junior and guess they want to make sure they work over the summer.  

Tomorrow we're heading for June lake for 3 days or so of camping.
