little old ladies

went for a walk today and had to laugh at the little old ladies hosing leaves etc off the side walk, it's like a rite of passage for that demographic. brooms outlawed! another thing that made me chuckle was the crazy lady from next door. there's another pyramid of salt on the walk out front of her place, this one strategically placed at the far corner, almost at the doorstep of our house. warding off some kind of vermon i am sure. maybe she knows who took the boots?

that always cracks me up...except when the city is in a water shortage/heat wave crisis.
then maybe...not so funny.

totally, it is hard to believe that there may be a shortage of water in most of the US this summer and yet we as a society still see sidewalk washing and technicolour green lawns as a priority. i'll bet we face shortages here too.

random aside - i hope we cross paths some day pg. feels like i already know you but it's just a meeting of the blogging minds.

Oh don't get me started on the clean the sidewalk thing. What a total and complete waste of water.

Dements me. DEMENTS ME!
