There's good news and bad news today. The good news is that the road between West Danville and Plainfield was undergoing
some pot-hole patching today! Marshfield Village was being worked when
we came through a little before noontime. I'm not sure which direction
they were going in, but the stretch between Marshfield and Plainfield
is particularly bad.
Speaking of bad spots - the apron off of Route 2 onto West Shore Road is really bad - I don't know whether to say "again" or "still." There seems to be some sort of on-going problem there the Danville road crew hasn't been able to correct. It may have to do with the way people spin out getting from West Shore Road onto the pavement that makes holes that fill with water and then just get bigger - a recipe for gigantic potholes. If that's the case, maybe extend the apron further onto W. Shore Road. However, there is a culvert there and they wouldn't want to pave over that, probably. Actually, that culvert could use some attention, too. There has been a really deep hole on the north side where anyone hitting it will probably end up in the brook, one way or another. That's been there for a while - and like the other holes, it gets filled from time to time, but then opens up again.
The bad
news is that we're in for some more snow this weekend. There aren't
many forecasters saying how much we can expect, but it's going to start tonight with
an inch or so and then there will be more through tomorrow and
Saturday. It could mean six or eight inches, I'm guessing - or maybe not.
Maybe instead we'll get rain. That might take down some of the snow we
have - like still three feet on our back lawn.
There's more good news, though - the block is out on the ice!
You give us hope!
Now I'm going to go rest my tired, abused eyes. I am still getting shots in my eyes every eight weeks - but now I get both eyes done at
