On Having Missed the Water Commissioners ...


Whoops! Today I should have reported on yesterday's EDC meeting, but I forgot to go! My goodness. Too much going on, with the season starting, that it slipped my mind. The Wellfleet Water Commissioners spoke, and I would have loved hearing them as Town Meeting prepares to vote on acquiring a water system for the downtown district. We will be hearing more about water in the weeks, months, and years to come, a natural resource that almost everyone takes for granted. Above, yet another view of Dyer Pond, one of the parts of town that has really clean water, and which could be considered as a possible location for the new pump. There's a meeting Thursday evening to discuss the water situation, among other things. I will try to attend. If I am blogging early today, it's because I must prepare breakfast for the guests, then hightail it to Hyannis with Sven. One of the definite disadvantages to living in Wellfleet is the necessity of driving 45 minutes whenever the services of a specialist are needed. To save gas, we try to combine errands on trips down Cape. Today we will hopefully accomplish Sven's check-up, shopping at Trader Joe's and a follow-up visit with Social Security to sign him up for Medicare.
