Cleanup, Clutter & Classic

     My daily walk took me to West Pittston
yesterday. It's usually a quiet place to get
a couple miles in. But that wasn't the case
this time.
     There was a lot happening and a lot to
see.
     First, the crew along the river!

    Contractors were busy pulling logs and debris from
 beneath the Fort Jenkins Bridge. It's been there since
 last September when homes and businesses were hit
 by flood waters. Let untouched the mess could have
 formed a dam that might have caused more damage
 any time the river rises.
      That's the last thing residents here need!
      Five months after the last flood a lot of people are
 still replacing floors, roofs, and walls wrecked by the
 high water!
                                                                         

       Most people are working hard to rebuild. But
they realize it's going to take time.
       I found something else sitting in a yard across
the river. With the weather being what it's been
this winter it looked about as useful as that flood
debris in West Pittston.
        It was an old "Ski Doo" with a "For Sale'
written on the windshield and the seat.                    

      The sellers can probably get a lot more use
out of the money than from the vehicle! I wish
them well. That said I'm hoping it won't get
used anywhere around here anytime soon!
       I'm as OK without snowmobile snow as the
folks in West Pittston will be with no more high
water!
       Hope the snow and floods stay away and that
all your NEWS is good!
