Interruptions and Such

Moments after posting the Jones upload, below, I experienced the third power outage of the afternoon. They've all been short, but there's no good reason for them. There is absolutely no severe weather in the area, no high winds (that occasionally cause interruptions here when above ground wires blow against each other).

So, I guess my message is that today's work will proceed at the pace that circumstances permit.

On top of everything else, Mrs. S's four year-old [or is it five?] cell phone appears to have died today.

By the way, net donations via PayPal totaled $35.82 for the month of September, raising the monthly average to $24.82. I sincerely appreciate those who are both willing and able to help, but the direction in which things are going is distinctly discouraging.
