CURRENT EVENTS IN (TOLLAND):
Remember the old Newsletter? Trying to emulate its purpose, Fill in your location in place of Tolland, and lay some news on us.
Hurricane Sandy knocked out 92 percent of power here, includ9ng ours. It was a long cold night with no power, so we were making plans to go someplace when Mary called and sais her power had come on. We think UCONN gets priority over other places as well it might. We spent the day at Mary's and planned to spend the night there, too. About 3 PM we drove up to Papa T's which never lost power for an early supper, then headed for home to pick up some things. Near Birch Grove School we saw some CL&P trucks and questioned the men.They said our power would be on in minutes, and it was on by the time we got home.
Old Bob undergoes cataract surgery on his left eye on Tuesday with the right one scheduled for the 20th. I told our neighbor, Phil, that I didn't want t o be old and blind. Phil added, "and deaf."
We play pool twice a week at the Senior center. Moe plays dominoes there another day.
Mary has been helping me pick up the leaves . It is almost all done.
We have been playing Trivial Pursuit with Peggy who usually .wins. I can't remember what I had for breakfast.
