In which Rolanni drives, and drives again

[rolanni]

Much time was spent on the road this day. First, to the post office, where some things were posted and others received, then to the bank to deposit what had been received, and home, to take Calamity's Child and several other chapbooks in hand and rush them down to the print shop in Augusta, where there was an honest-to-ghod traffic jam going on, making it necessary for me to wait whole minutes to make my turn. Boy, am I glad I don't live down there in the city...

Beside the traffic jam, the other notable driving events were:

The horse that had gotten out of its paddock and was charging back and forth across Route 201 in Vassalboro, eluding the two people who were trying to guide him out of harm's way.

Many male turkeys at various locations strutting their stuff. Equal number of female turkeys, largely bored with aforesaid stuff.


At home, I signed off of all but one of my email lists, thereby making life much more peaceful, did a few chores while kinzel heroically hacked away at the order monster belowstairs; and a small bout of writing.

In about an hour, Dulsey needs to go into the puppy crate, with neither food nor water, so that she may approach tomorrow's big event pure in body and spirit. Or at least hungry.

I've had to deal with horses loose on a relatively busy road. Not Fun.

Poor Dulsie.

Traffic jam probably relates to the major bridge-closing -- your tax dollars at work. They _warned_ us . . .

Prolly it was. I thought I was being clever by going in the back way...

There's not that many back ways into the area bounded by the courthouse, the rotary, and the Kennebec River, esepcially not when the locals have got to put up with this mess for months and have scoped out the same back ways you have...
