When it comes to bad weather, here at Shirlington Circle, we like to highlight (with a fair bit of sarcasm) some fun. No one likes it when people leave a mess for others to clean up. I don't know these people, but I took a few pictures while walking around the block. So here are some pictures, both good and bad.
Yeah! A plow.
Saving a spot...not very nice, and not allowed.

Different folks getting more elaborate, with a full chair.
If you move, it's not your spot any longer...right?
This person gets 1st Prize. At least they parked a Vehicle in the space.
A+ for innovation.
It looks like the person had enough energy to clear their spot.
Really, I don't think there's any trash pick-up today.
Leaving it outside will invite every rodent in the village to eat at Joe's porch.
PEOPLE WITH PETS: Your neighbors don't want to step in your dog's excrement.
Clean it up, especially when the sidewalks are barely passable.
This pile looks like it's from a little ankle biter.

These photos are meant to be light-hearted (with some truth). We're not singling out people, just portraying what two feet of snow does to a neighborhood.
Thanks for reading.
Unfortunately, people who don't clean-up after their dogs is universal. I saw a young woman walking two dogs, a large and a tiny dog. I watched the tiny dog do its business on the sidewalk by the SV condos. I could tell she had baggies, so I thought, oh good she will pick it up. But no, she just walked on. I've heard that some of the professional dog walkers are very notorious for not picking up.
ReplyDeleteI live up the hill in Fairlington, and I rarely see dog poop. However, Shirlington is another matter. It's disgusting, and it's all over the village. Hey folks, this isn't Paris. It's Arlington county. Get with the program.
