Burst Pipe Adventure - Day 15

[started my day (still in White River Junction) early again (0545) and teleworked until breakfast (0635) - teleworking and meetings until lunch time (1230) - ate lunch in room - because I still had to go through the remaining chicken (the last frozen food I was keeping in a cooler), I ate meat for lunch before I started my Ash Wednesday fast/abstinence - back to teleworking - at 1445, I left the hotel and drove to Whaleback Mountain to meet up with Jon H for a few drinks - I tried some Lawson's Finest "Little Sip" (it was good) and hung out with him and the other employees until around 1615 - everyone was excited for the chance of snow during the overnight and I crossed my fingers for them - I drove to my condo to get my mail and a few other items and ended up talking with my neighbors (Beth and Ann) for a little while about the repair timeline (I got another "it should be about two weeks") - after that, I drove to the Dartmouth Campus so I could attend Ash Wednesday Mass at the Aquinas House (1700) - the sanctuary was packed and I had to stand throughout the roughly 30 minute service - when it was over, I went back to my condo (I'd forgotten something) and went back to the hotel - at around 1830, I ate dinner (all veggies) - after that, I did some reading and did some more Shutterfly downloads/uploads - at 1915, an online meeting I'd previously scheduled with my Financial Advisor began - the internet speeds were horrible so it ended up being mostly on the phone - we were done talking by 2130 and I watched some movies after that - bed was at 2230]
