Tried a different route to work today

Had even less luck than on Broad Street!  The City didn’t clear the Laurel Street bridge.  The absentee landlords of 85 Sigourney Street didn’t shovel their sidewalk, which stretched from Hawthorn to Farmington.  The City didn’t shovel the sidewalk at 97 Ashley.  At least Veeder Place shoveled, up to a point!



And back into the street at Veeder Place

They didn’t shovel, either.



More snow

The bridge, once again, was not cleared, and yes, I followed the trail blazed before me, and braved Broad Street.  Thankfully, I made it across safely, and based on the time stamps on these two photos, it only took me six minutes.  It felt like it was a lot longer!



Many thanks to ConnectiCare!

The front door, looking good with the sunlight streaming through!  Plus the stained-glass window on the landing and the second-floor bathroom.
