First Weekend with No TV

So this was our first weekend without TV. We cancelled all our cable TV service this week. It's an experiment in time and money! And yes, we know we can get the broadcast networks, but so far we haven't even tried. I mean, what, I should want to watch "Age of Love"?
Let's see, no TV means we: bought and installed a hammock, bought and installed a fourth bird feeder, bought groceries for the next week and a half, cleaned the house, read books, did schoolwork, finally installed our surround sound speakers, attended a party, went to church, went to a concert, went for 2 bike rides, and watched an entire Seinfeld Netflix disc. (Well, you didn't really think we'd leave the TV completely OFF, did you?)
In wildlife news, we have a bunny joining the squirrels in foraging beneath the feeder. We especially like it when the squirrels startle him and he jumps backwards!
Dale's teeth are healing well. No more chipmunk cheeks! He's off to Chicago this week and then will hopefully be staying home for a while.
