Friday night lights

I was driving home from a wonderful dinner at the Taqueria Moroleon at 9:30 last night and was surprised to find that Newark Road, north of Toughkenamon, was lit up like a stadium. It seems they are installing new pipelines underneath the roadway and are doing the project at night, under portable floodlights. Because only one lane of traffic is allowed through at a time, I waited in a line behind one of Rob Pearson's dump trucks for a minute or so and then the flagger let us through.
