Driveway, Sidewalk, and Backyard Torn Up

Mon, 04 Feb 2008 23:59:59 -800

Sunday afternoon, I returned from having dim sum with Liz to find a work
crew slicing and dicing the parking strip and driveway in front of my
house with a bobcat. The plan is to remove the weed-infested strip of
cement between the sidewalk and the curb and plant something (flowers?)
there instead. The steep drop from the driveway to the street will be
smoothed out somewhat, the drain fixed up, and various small chunks of
broken sidewalk repaired. The foreman drove by and said that they would
pour the new concrete as close to tomorrow as they can get, weather
permitting.
