'Bridges' are a part of a Wi-Fi hotspot that Jim has questions about. He hasn't worked with that many and he's a real hands-on learning kind of guy! (I like that in a man :-)

So - when a park outside of Austin needed a new bridge installed, he volunteered. What's a 'Bridge', you ask? It's a way to get the network (Internet) signal from one point to another without having to string cable. At least, that's what it does in this case - it can actually mean a few different things. Here, it is 2 radios transmitting directly to each other to make a wireless connection. Not all Wi-Fi hotspots need it - only when the Internet connection comes into one place, and the Wi-Fi Access Point Antenna needs to be in another.


Here's Jim, up on his new ladder installing one side of the bridge.



And, here he is putting up the other side.


He's been wanting a bigger ladder. He will definitely need it in order to do Datastorm installs. Check out the photos of when ours was installed. Actually, I think he may have voluteered for this job just to give him an excuse to buy a bigger ladder! Like Tool Time Tim, Jim loves tools, and the bigger the better!

So, how do we carry this monster in our motorhome?



Guess what?! It's chilly today! 58 degrees when we got up, and now, at noon, it's still only 61. brrrrr

Now, where is that sweatshirt that I neatly stowed with 'winter clothes'?
