Living in an Inside Cabin

So I have my Skype account now, gardner310. For those of you who are on Skype add my account name to your contacts.  For those who aren’t on Skype, you should look into an account.  Free calls are always a good thing.  After talking to AT&T, my cell phone service, I decided that the cell phone will be an emergency vehicle only or my phone bill will be more than my salary.  I am bound and determined to learn Skype including doing the videos with a web cam.  Any instruction and tips from those who are using Skype would be most welcome.
