Condo Developments, in a manner of speaking

Aside from our apartment being haunted (more of that in a moment) things are continuing to evolve here in the old Prata funeral home on Westminster street.

So far half of the ten units are sold and word is a sixth has just closed. That means a change of association board members, which we will probably undertake later next month (September). In the meantime the builder/developer, Bob Russell and his partner Peter Morsili continue to be the point men for all the minor aches and pains of a growing concern like ours. Before long those of us onsite owners will have to start sharing more of the day-to-day burden of running this place.

OK the haunting thing.

Well several weeks ago two drops of an oily, brown substance appeared out of nowhere on the baseboard by the closet door in the guest bedroom. They were space about 10 inches apart. No sign of anything leaking from the ceiling and certainly there hasn't been any equipment in there. It took quite a bit of scrubbing with GooGone to get ride of the two stains.

Well, like in Poltergeist, "They're back." And once again we have no idea how or why they appear nor what the substance is made of. Frankly the less I know the better. . .

Wish you were here -- maybe you'd know!
