Tree down

On Monday morning West Marlborough made the early traffic reports on the Philadelphia TV stations, which reported that a downed tree was blocking the intersection of Newark Road and Route 82. They were almost right: it was actually along Route 82 between Newark and West Roads. The tree caught fire and the firefighters from Po-Mar-Lin were out there before dawn extinguishing it. When I drove by at 10 a.m. on Monday, only a charred log remained.
