Potholes & frost heaves appearing1/26/10
Cloudy & 30 degrees. The creek is high & loud from yesterday's rain. Just like last year, the first sign of spring in Vermont is not crocuses; it is not maple syrup running. It is the appearance of frost heave signs along the road. There is one on 133 about 100 yards from our house. Allyn made a good point the other night when we were driving back from town. She wondered what is it about that particular spot that separates it from the rest of the 5 miles of bad road between Ira and West Rutland? That stretch reminds me of the Mr. Toads Wild Ride attraction at Disneyland. I have actually pulled muscles in my back after being jostled around there on my way to work. It would make more sense to have a sign that said "smooth road for the next 50 yards-enjoy!"
