After the snow is gone

I must admit I blew a gasket on this!

Wisconsin property taxes are on the rise and services like snowplows destroy the brand new layer of gravel edgeing they just put down last year! What's wrong with this picture?


Yup Dodge Copunty spent a pretty penny to lay down about 8 inches of fresh gravel last year because the road is some what narrow and the county used it as a detour during the Hwy 60 bridge construction just out of Hustisford.


Now its gone! hmm... I saw this coming last year already and now I am faced with my day of reconing. I remember the 3 foot long strips of sod layin on top of the drifts over the winter.


I knew then that this summer I can look forward to a bouncy ride on the ol' mower. What I did not see then was that fresh gravel. Guess where it went.



Yup, right where I asked for it last year! When I told the town board member as we looked at it, when it was fresh, I can't run 8" of gravel through my lawn mower! When I asked to use some of the edge for the area by the mail box he said no.

I couldn't mow gravel then and I will be dambed if I will now! I figure if YOU throw it in my yard its mine.

I could thank you for topping off the potholes in my driveway, but then you were not out there picking it out of my Lawn assholes!

I'm gettin too old for this kind sh**! Unintended consequences? 2 blisters, a bit of chest pain and cramps, I figure I got 35 wheel barrels of winnowed gravel thanks to your waste Dodge County!

Yes I do vote in the primaries!
