Derby Town/City Clerk posts City Hall holiday schedule

Recuperation journey: Quick update

Since I know many readers saw my post yesterday about Cameron - he of fractured hip fame - venturing to Long Island via several trains, I wanted to post a quick update. 

He did really well! I'm sure it boosted his confidence. 

The fun part is that just as Cameron arrived at his destination on L.I., he bumped into his co-workers dropping someone off at the station. 

Perfect timing! He didn't have to call a cab to get to the office. 
I told him there are no coincidences.
