Well, the things we don't know would stun an ox.
Just a couple of blocks from the homestead, Transit Alternatives is sponsoring a competition to redesign the intersection of 4th Ave and 9th Street. Lookee here. 4th & 9th and 5th & 9th are both hairy enough that I always try to take an alternate route - whether on 'ittle 'ikey or in the mini if there's gonna be a left hand turn involved. Of course, it pales in comparison to Mel's Boulevard of Death, but we have to live with our own woes.
(Notice the ambulance and patrol car at the northeast corner by Thomas Aquinas - not so unusual. Also notice the cars parked at the southwest corner - I betcha a nickel the one closest to the corner does not have a license plate on it and is for sale. This blows me down. Who's getting schmeared to allow this? For about 10 years running I've gotten a ticket on the day my inspection expires, but someone out there is using one of the busiest intersections in the Seven Eight as an auto lot, parking cars without tags? Puhleeese!)
