Good morning!!!!

As far as developing a banking relationship with Chase:

... run away as fast as you can.

The experience at Chase was... weird. Each time I was met at the door by a just out of high schooler in badly fitting shirt and tie, then paired with a "banker". The first was just older than the greeter, and similarly clothed, who tried to make small talk that just came off as condescending. The second time, same greeter, but the next banker was a woman who appeared to be in her late 30s to mid 40s (how do you tell?) dressed in a business suit that flattered her figure. Not exactly appropriate bank attire, but who am I to complain? Both bankers seemed overwhelmed by the computer systems they were using, both punctuating their wrestling matches with excuses and frequent visits with someone else to get help. I wasn't at all impressed with the web interface for the Chase banking software, and when asked why I was closing the accounts, used that as an excuse. But the real reason is that it was the same clueless experience I'd been having with BofA, and I have no desire to continue in that direction with a different bank that sat in the same parking lot.

I'm thinking about just using the checking facilities at my brokerage house, but how do I cash checks and what am I supposed to use for a safe deposit box?

Drew, I'm camping in Gettysburg, just down the road from the campground you stayed at on your motorhome adventure.

Good thing you're camping in PA...if you had been in MD, a SWAT team would have probably been rolling in...

I live far enough north in MD to hear a lot at my house. I haven't let any fly in awhile, need to buy more.

Ron, yes the flail was new in Feb this year.
Told my wife, I wish I had down this mowing idea with my old flail before I sold it. I still worked fine, just racked a bit from catching an albizia root. Even still had the original belts.

Drew, I bet those former owners really look forward to their visits. Good job.

Don, sure understand your concern, but no easy answer. When my MIL lived alone, we got her a Great Call button and put the app on her iPhone, figuring she'd always be covered. Not her!!! The one time she felt she was just making a quick trip to her mailbox so had neither.
