Weather yo-yo

Highs in the 60s today. Forecast for lows near 40 F tonight....

Hey, I _warned_ you what would happen when I set up that air-conditioner.

Urban archaeology department: the contractor has the decking torn off the front porch of my apartment renovation/conversion project across the river, that 1850+/- house of ill repute. Two burrows underneath, one woodchuck sized (we've seen Chuck on site) and one that looks an awful lot like a fox den. I would _assume_ they aren't contemporary.

The crew has also found a certain amount of rot after stripping off layers of siding. No extra charge. One reason we wanted to negotiate with a single contractor, rather than put the project out to competitive bid -- this contractor specializes in old buildings, and had figured such little surprises in his price.

No work on PENDRAGON AUTUMN yet today. Dratted day job keeps getting in the way.

Hah. I told you that the insanely early hot and humid weather we had a couple of weeks back was due to your not having set it up earlier!

Regarding the fox den under the old house of ill repute: where else but a bordello would a vixen live?
