impressive

So I'm sitting at home doing not much at all, and I keep hearing scraping sounds from outside. I wasn't sure what it was, but I never bothered to get up off the sofa.

I finally took a look and saw something quite impressive. A large number of apartment residents are out there clearing the parking lot and connecting driveways between them. There's a thick layer of hard packed snow everywhere and they're out there with picks and shovels clearing it all away. Apparently there was an announcement on the complex PA system calling for volunteers to help with the clearing. They've got bare concrete showing now. Again, it's quite impressive.

In other news, my left hand is really stiff. I think it's arthritic.

Comments

My hand's gotten a bit better.

But I have to take some of it back. Although the effort the local residents put in to clearing the lots was impressive, where they placed the piles of snow and ice is not. They filled up a whole bunch of parking spots and made the driveways extremely narrow. Now there's nowhere to park.

it seems you need to take over the snow management in korea (not just your city)

let me know how many snow shovels/scrapers and toques you'd like in the first shipment

i'll send some bags of salt as well

You can use table salt for fun. Give some people pepper, just to spice it up. HA!
