Last night as Caitlin and I were watching the Olympics, our power suddenly went out. We sat on the front porch in the moonlight, watching bats swooping by until we figured there was nothing else to do but go to bed. Their big red golden, Cooper used the excuse of unusual circumstances to sleep with me.
The power was still not on when we got up this morning, so we drove into Gardiner for breakfast. The boys spent the morning playing outside. Here’s Henry playing in the sandbox.
Neither of our phones are charged, but my MacBook and MiFi still have a charge, so I’m able to post my photos. As I write this, some help has arrived- a good friend arrived with a generator. The fridge is now plugged in, and later we plan on charging our phones.
