Cell Probs

River and Trees

Yesterday Sunday my son and his wife were having problems with their cells and it couldn't be resolved over the phone, since we have no place here in town to help we had to drive over one hour to Mankato to a T-mobile store and had them look at both phones and fixed one but the other one could not be fixed. Since I had my last cell at home and it was just sitting there I told my son he could have it so he came home put in the sim card and it is working for him. We thought while we were there we would stop in the Dollar store and look around. Then we stopped at Starbucks and since we had never gone to any of the parks in that area we decided to go to a park and were surprised to see they had a boat ramp so we went down the boat ramp a ways and saw the river and some people on the bank fishing then we also saw a boat out in the river with people fishing. I couldn't get a picture of the people fishing as they were to far away but I was able to take a few pictures of the river and the trees there.

The scenery looks beautiful.. I don't know how you all could survive without mobile. .I don't think I would survive at least for an hour without my mobile

That is excactly why they needed to go and see why the phones were not working correctly.

@alberello75 It is difficult without the mobile phone especially if someone is having car problems they need to call for help.

Such a pretty scene. That sounds relaxing, just watching the fishermen.

Your phone issue gave you an opportunity to visit the park and the lake. The accompanying picture is very beautiful. I loved it.

The phone issue sure did give us an opportunity to see that park as we had never been there before and the river as well. Glad you enjoyed looking at the picture.

@dpk262006 It was a blessing in disguise just to visit the park and see the river at that time of evening.

Not having a phone store close would make me nuts. Here I can go to many of them if I ever needed help with my phone. But is I ever have a problem, AT&T usually fixes any issues over the phone. Nice looking lake.

generally a problem can be fixed over the phone but for some reason not this time and it is a hassle having to go so far to find that out. It is a nice river.

@inertia4 The few times in the past when I had my other phone it was handled over the phone.

It is a very pretty park and quite large. Yeah just glad they were able to do something with the one. Now my son also has a smartphone. Starbucks coffee was good.

No they did not have to buy another cell phone, thank goodness the gal at T-Mobile was able to fix the one phone. Then we were able to put in his sim car in a smartphone i had here that I wasn't using so that saved them from having to buy one.

At least they got a better result than I did when my mobile ceased to work. I ended up buying a cheap mobile to last until my upgrade is due in April.

They had called a number of times and were told to do this and that but nothing worked so that is why the trip to Mankato. To bad you had to buy a cheap phone until your upgrade is due in April.

Glad one phone got fixed but sucks the other one did not. Beautiful picture of the river, I love going to parks and seeing rivers and waterfalls so precious. I'm hoping to go to one this weekend if the weather cooperates.

Yeah one phone was fixed but he doesn't care as he now has a smartphone which he didn't have before. I also love going around and seeing parks, rivers and waterfalls. If you do go to one this weekend we would like to see pictures of it.

As @Berniezeitler put it, outside the phone, it seemed to be a good day. At least you - spent time with family, drove in to the Dollar Shop and also the Starbucks. And the best was the river and the park. I would have loved it too - especially after the horrible last week I had. The pic looks good - I love the reflection of the tree in the water

Even having to go in and talk to a customer service lady she was very helpful and we had fun in that store. It was fun, yes the reflection of the tree in the river did turn out good.

Great picture quality and the scenery is lovely. My phone has an okay camera quality but tends to not take great pictures indoors for some reason.
