Lights OUT!

A thunderstorm managed to upset power to 900 Marshy Cove this week. "Where's my flashlight?" could be heard from several darkened condos. Residents discovered their coffee tables in the dark with their shins. Ouch! Candlelight proved to be the more romantic option.

The good news is that we learned a few things about the building.

Common observations:

• "Whadda ya know, the emergency lights really work"


• "No elevator?" Yes, no power, no elevator.


• "I didn't know that we had stairways."


• The other key is for opening the fire door on the stairway and side entrances.


• The garage door opens automatically on a power failure. Yes, your car will not be locked in the garage. OK!


• No Internet, no cable, you may be forced to talk to other people or play cards by candlelight. aaarrgh!

Sorry, I missed all of the fun.

After a few hours, the lights returned, cable TV, Internet, Microwave, and Air Conditioning. At least the power company doesn't charge us for the downtime; but, why does Comcast?

Something to do with the Kiddies!

Heard on the elevator.

The following is subject to fact checking. Some of it may be closer to rumor.

We understand that:

• Beazer will be listing more boat slips for sale.
• Beazer will be selling the remaining condo models at 900 Marshy Cove.
• Beazer may also change the building plan to include different residential structures rather than more condo units.

Stay tuned, what ever happens, will take a long time.

Gate Crashers!

We're back from vacation. The following is old news.


From Comanco Management:

Some time on the night of June 25 vandals rammed the Trenton St. gate. According to the Cambridge Police, two witnesses saw a red Chevy S10 pickup hit the gate at approximately 30 - 40 miles per hour.

Cambridge Police requests that anyone who may see a vehicle that fits the description above to call the police dept immediately. Try to get a plate number if possible. The police have stated that they are on the lookout for the vehicle and will stop anyone in an S10 pickup. Comanco has already mailed notices to everyone in Deep Harbor.


Here's what an S10 looks like. This is 1998 model. Chevy hasn't manufactured S10's for several years.
