January 3, 2010

Well winter snowman dropped several inches of snow for the last two days.  I live in the city and when it snows saving a parking space is a primary concern.  Afterall, you put the effort forward to dig your car out, it sucks when someone else comes along and takes your spot.  So people here put chairs out to save their spots.  It is really funny.  So Scott had to go to the grocery store today to get the kitties' some food.  So he brushed the car off and I put a chair in his spot to save his space.


It looks so lonely sitting there.  Maybe put a palm tree next to it?????

Mystery solved.  (I get two for Jan 3)   All last year we could not figure out who was plowing the sidewalk when it snowed.  We would have a nice plowed walking area going down the street.  I finally caught the culprit.  It is Mike a neighbor on the street around the corner.  He plows the sidewalk from his home all the way around the corner, past my home and up to his dad's home.  He does this so his dad can walk over to his home.  I thanked him and I think that is very nice of him to do.

  1. Haha, people put out chairs here in MD too. I thought we were the only ones.

    That is really nice of that guy to do that, even if it is for his dad.

  2. The chair story is hilarious and your photo is fantastic. As someone from the land where it never, ever snows, I was amused and befuddled by the tradition. Thanks for sharing it.

  3. How nice that you leave between your neighbor and his dad and can benefit from your neighbor's thoughtfulness
