Lost lower for a few hours last night. It was after dark, but I wasn't ready to go to bed already, so it got very boring, very fast. I ended up doing some reading by candlelight.

Speaking of not having electricity, I am fascinated by the story of the father and daughter living for four years in a camp in a public park in Portland Oregon. It's like something out of a novel. I do hope that things work out for the best for them, and that being brought out of the woods doesn't turn out to have been a bad thing. (I'm thinking of the no cavities and 12th grade equivalent education.)
