Tues 13 Jun

Quite a thunderstorm last night, with trees/branches down all over town, power out here from early evening until about 3:50 am, and still out throughout much of town. A huge branch of the tree in front of St Paul's Church went down, blocking the doorway but not appearing to do much other damage. A crew arrived with chain saws to cut it up and remove it as soon as the storm stopped, and we were "treated" to two and a half hours of buzzing chain saws and babble of the crew. Fortunately they finished by a little past 9:30 pm. We have had rain off and on and some thunder and lightning this morning as well, but nothing destructive. It has served to keep me in the house and to decide against trying to attend the retiree's lunch at Wooden Chair as planned. If I couldn't walk there, I decided to give it a pass. Food: 7:30 am 1 c Quaker Oat Squares, 1/2 c soy milk, 102 g blackberries, coffee 11:45 am 2 slices Omega 3 toast w/butter, 1 tbl PB Fit, baby carrots
