The Alley

So the alley behind our house was getting really bad with potholes. The borough is not responsible for maintaining it although they are responsible for allowing more homes to be built that use it. One can only wonder where the liability will fall when an ambulance or fire truck cannot get through during a big snowfall!

So we talked with our neighbors Mike & Amy and decided to take it upon ourselves and our friend Blair brought over his backhoe and graded it down and delivered about 33 tons of modified stone. We set about asking the neighbors and I also put up this sign hehe. So far 4 people have contributed $40 each towards the total cost.

Yea no kidding. Especially since you only use like what..30 feet of it to get to your driveway?
