Keith: Getting some miles in!
August 10th, 2021
Keith: We almost got away with having only our AT&T hotspot for the CTOA Road Trip. We were defeated by Santa Cruz. No ATT signal at all. I had to “run” out to get a Verizon hotspot. $110/month for 150GB of data vs. my grandfathered unlimited ATT plan for $30/month.
