Pittsboro, NC

 I know it's not all that interesting to most everyone else.....but we are finally getting fiber internet at the house.  After all these years of no availability, Brightspeed is laying the fiber right up to our house. 

 

Interesting to watch the contractor drill the hole under our driveway.  Amazingly efficient process with a sort of "sub-soiler" that lays the fiber cable about 6" underground.

This is part of a US government program to bring internet to under-served rural areas.  The appointment for the inside installation is Monday so we'll see if it actually works or not....fingers crossed!
