There are several things great about Mr. August: John Sousoulas and the 24-hour diner he’s been running for more than 25 years.

In honor of yesterday’s brief and unbecoming snowfall (which, granted, has already melted away), it recalled a scene in Branford’s Youngs Pond Park and Mother Nature’s winter trickery: the day it fell cold once again after several successive, and convincing, spring-like days.
