High-speed Internet access finally is coming to Brooklin. Here, you see the fiber optic cable being lashed mechanically yesterday to a messenger line that was strung between the poles along Naskeag and Back Roads. That’s cold work up there.
The big question around here: When will everything be hooked to homes and wi-fi routers? I keep hearing “pretty soon.” That confounding answer seems to be somewhere between a confident “soon” and an indefinite “later.” But “pretty soon” may be the best you can do with outside winter projects in Maine.
