Email from Debbie today :

“We’re on Fairpoint’s construction schedule!  They got the right-of-way permission today (so they say).  Poles should be placed in a week or two.  The construction group has a “fluid” schedule due to storms etc., but the woman on the phone said ‘I’m not in that department and they do their own thing, but construction should be light at this time of year.”

Countdown. Starts. Now.
