Even a small path would be helpful for people, but I guess that is too much effort.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446330500314261009.post-1017978102716850422007-03-19T10:17:00.000-05:002007-03-19T10:17:00.000-05:00I agree with doug.

Apparently I must be crazy to use those sidewalks because even 24 hours after the storm, mine were the first footprints.<BR/><BR/>Unlike last time, there's snow under there; it's not solid ice, and there should be no excuse this time.<BR/><BR/>But just like february, mine is the only sidewalk shoveled on my street, even three days later. Some did shovel a small section so they could get from their walkway to their car, but did not put forth the extra 10% effort to make their sidealk passable for everyone else.<BR/><BR/>Maybe it's because I'm new her, but when I lived in Somerville there was usually only one house on a street that didn't shovel the sidewalk; in Newton it's the opposite.
