Down the road is a new cellular tower - blinking strobe at night sorta
ruins the rural ambience.  Hasn't been there long - heard today that
after $400,000 to get it up, it's coming down!  Seems that it's "not
quite close enough to the interstate."  I understand that the guy that
decided where to place it is no longer with the company.  Oh well, I
guess that's why cellular bills are what they are.  Moral - be really
sure where you want your tower before you install it - especially those
140 ft telephone poles!  HI
