A homemade cement roller rolls in. A red English racer with chrome fenders and Sturmey Archer hub follows. Cast-iron lawn furniture and garden tools crowd the walls. Presto the Magician appears in the former lab of the Sherlock Holmes Club. A small workbench works a corner. Scraps of wood and window sashes sit on shelves, applauding. Aluminum deck chairs with plastic webbing arrive, along with two dogs, a badminton set. The dogs sleep through the wintry afternoon.
