I hope you have a wonderful and safe Memorial Day Weekend. Our South Burlington store will be open but all other stores and offices will be closed on Monday. I haven’t quite figured out what we are doing, but I know for sure I will be getting out on my Indian motorcycle for some mountain viewing.
Grace and I are putting our Prickly Mountain house up for sale so we are working on downsizing. I don’t know if my angst about selling has more to do with our beautifully landscaped yard that we have worked so hard to create, or just my nearly 50 years of accumulated stuff. The place is just too big and too many stairs for us old folks so there is some change afoot.

Solving Missing Messages
A friend recently got in touch with me about a troubling problem. When he received texts on his iPhone, Messages displayed notifications for messages from everyone…except his wife! Needless to say, this was a problem. Since notifications appeared correctly for other people, it wasn’t related to overall settings. It turned out that he—or someone else, or iOS gremlins—had inadvertently enabled the Hide Alerts switch for the Messages conversation with his wife. To fix it, all he had to do was display the conversation in Messages, tap the” i” button at the upper right, and disable Hide Alerts. (In the Mac version of Messages, click the Details button and look for the Do Not Disturb check box.) It’s a good feature designed to let you mute a chatty group conversation, but it can cause stress if applied to the wrong conversation accidentally.
The next time you notice missing messages, check those settings.
