Remember the days when we could "fix" stuff ourselves? Technology is great until it "ain't" working! Living in the "boondocks" is also a real "game changer."
Oh well, our Grandaughter's little dog lived after being bitten by a Rattlesnake (twice) near the house at their ranch near Marble Falls. Now they have the anti-venom treatments to save lives from such events. Pretty darn expensive, though.
Yep... I understand the problem. We do spend way too much time on the phone trying to get "customer service" people to do their jobs. Hang in there Don. The good news... you don't really need that stinkin' range finder... Mr. "Dead-Eye" Mason... King of the Course!
