TBW Daily Diary

Very quiet day citywide as we wait for the Susquehanna to crest. Fortunately that will occur well below original predictions. Our power at the uptown house was turned off late yesterday afternoon; that was a ridiculous measure since nothing in the neighborhood was touched by the water and primarily meant that a lot of food would spoil and be wasted. Power came back late this afternoon. I am sure the mayor made one or two thoughtful decisions, but for the most part this has been an event of total mismanagement by a lot of people in charge . . .
