12/22 Traffic island in the middle of Broadway, knee-high fence separating the cars and the nondescript bushwork. That fence has christmas lights wrapped around it. Who decided to put them there, and when, and how? Also: Where do they get their power from? Is there really an outlet right there, on the traffic island, just for those christmas lights? The question only occurs to me now, late at night, and I will not be able to investigate this, probably not this year at all, since we are leaving for Puerto Rico tomorrow.
