Power failure here in Brookline, Mass. last evening. It hit the neighborhood sometime before we got home from playing in the sprinklers in the park on the first really hot day of the summer season. The power wasn’t restored ’til sometime after 4 a.m. this morning, my laptop’s batteries were run down, I’m not up to wireless posts from my Palm device yet. And, anyway, we liked playing in the dark. That’s why you got no new entries here yesterday.
