Winter's Irony
It was more than ironic yesterday that down in Baker Park brown grass surrounded the popular skating rink when a much more distressing event was flowing on 11th Avenue. It was more than a mop and bucket job up when water began pumping out of the grass to flood parts of three roads in quick order. So much water was flowing for a while that it was also gushing out of manhole covers down the hill. As city crews arrived and assessed the situation the water quickly formed a dangerous skating rink of another kind. Crews worked all day and to our knowledge water in homes was restored by dinner time but we sincerely hope the residents did not suffer too much damage - it is hard to imagine that they did not.
Of course it was Friday the 13th.

Isn't this the identical spot that was dug up a couple years back on 11th? And that failure was only a few years after the whole road was re-done. Who was the contractor? Who supplied to pipes? Are they liable? We are one block over and had brown drinking water for two days because of this. Geez....
