Icy to Sloppy

What a difference a weather system makes!

Last week we were hovering just above zero. Two days ago, it snowed four inches. Today, it's 45 degrees and that snow is a sloppy slushy soup of goop.

I'm going to have to go dig out the corner sewer grate after work tonight. There is a lot of water pooling out there.

I'm part of a Neighborhood Social Media thing called Corbin Park Spokane. People who can be on it are limited to the immediate borders of our neighborhood.

It's got a lot of superfluous stuff on there...lost pets, stuff for sale. But it is also a great spot to find out about suspicious people seen in the area, break ins, and other news.

Last week, one neighbor posted about everyone being sure to clear their sidewalks and make Corbin Park safe for walking. Last night, she reported that Corbin Park was 100% sidewalk clean.

That's pretty cool! Of course, a day of higher temperatures and rain helped with that as much as the shovelers, methinks.
