Night Signal Secured

I scrambled up the rough brick footing of the corner pillar where a portable solar patio lantern was sitting completely askew! One stiff draft and that light source would have toppled into the dirt. Squad bivouac requires clear visibility after sundown! I dug my rubber cleats firmly into the mortar seam, wrapped both arms around the square glass housing, and hauled back with full body leverage. With a solid, satisfying clink, the heavy metal base settled flat and centered on the stone cap. I gave the top solar panel two brisk taps with my snout to confirm it was locked down tight. Night beacon glowing, perimeter secure for the team!
