Snow is one thing, but I'm concerned about what will be left when it melts. I'm sure there is plenty of concrete and asphalt bits in the piles. Atleast around my area they tore up the roads and curbs when cleaning stuff up.. Who knows what else is in that pile lol.

I'll guess April 10.
I'm guessing Friday March 26th :)

The city usually comes thru and sweeps the lot for us.

Still a nasty black snow mess out there. Also enough debris on the lot that you couldn't safely (for your tires) drive on it.

Any chance we can get another picture update like was done last week? (really appreciated that, Fred) A couple of us need to make a decision tomorrow evening if we are running with Susquehanna SCCA (registration closes tomorrow night). I'd rather run with the CDC crew, so give me some confidence we'll be on this Sat, please??

We took a picture, but it was raining so hard you couldn't see anything. I tried to get my wife to open her window to take a pic but she did not like the idea, I had to take her to lunch...as punishment.

When I went by this morning looks like all the snow is gone but there looks to be about an inch of mud, dirt, garbage over the entire lot.

If they can get it cleaned up you should be in good shape.

AWESOME ... it looks like I have to figure out the Dan K/Franklin wheel/tire method. I purchased 10' of 1" PVC pipe and 4 ratchet straps.

(Dave?) Does anyone else want to split this stuff up. I have no need for that much PVC or ratchet straps. The stuffs not expensive, I just don't want to end up throwing things away and I have ZERO room to store any more stuff in my small condo.
