11-25 The Rain Came Back

A Rainy Day

Got up this morning and it was raining but we went to town anyway. While in town we stopped by Aldi and picked up a Mama Cozzis pizza for dinner. During the day I read and Larry completed installing his wireless video doorbell. In the evening we watched a couple of programs from Amazon, the first was a documentary called Happy People - A Year in the Taiga, it was about trappers in Siberia Russia, we enjoyed it, there were some subtitles and I am not sure why it was titled Happy People. We then watched a short cartoon film called Room on the Broom.

We have had a SiriusXM satellite radio subscription for many years.  At one time we had three subscriptions but when Sirius and XM combined they removed our favorite channel, it was a folk channel called The Village. Each service had a folk channel but after combining they killed the Sirius channel and made The Village a online only channel. This caused us to cancel two of our subscriptions. Our other subscription is a lifetime plan that is assigned to a radio that we move back and forth from the pickup to the motor-home. Our new car has SiriusXM built in but we don't pay for a subscription. They are currently having a free listening session until December 2nd so as we were driving around town we had the radio tuned to a Sirius station. We were talking about how we really used to like The Village so later in the day Larry signed us up for the online service. If we find we are not using it we will cancel the service. Over the years we have tried lot's of different services for the house; Rdio, Google Music, Amazon Music, Pandora, Spotify and some that I don't remember, we always seem to go back to Pandora. We also have quite an extensive collection of our own music that we mainly listen to when we travel.
