Tom's waiting for a call back from another (much less expensive) hotel close to Mass General. I need to see if there's a friend who can drive us to Boston so Tom can be at the hospital by 8 a.m. Tuesday. Train is too iffy. Then find someone who can pick us up at the train station in Durham on Wednesday when we come home.

Logistics!

Meanwhile, we've laid in a supply of water and batteries as prophylactic against losing power in the wake of Earl. We're with the NH Electric Co-op -- we lose power when a butterfly rams a pole, let alone a hurricane. When we lose power, we lose water (electric pump) and phone (cable) as well. I made a smart move during last February's power outage and bought a cell phone charger for my car. Not that I can USE the phone within 5 miles of the house...

Off to work...
