mmmm blacktop

In a nearly unparalleled move, the city has taken to paving the patchwork quilt that has been U St NE. They began by stripping off the whole top layer of pavement (kinda cool) and now they are getting ready to put down new blacktop.

Yesterdays work was hamperd for a good hour as one lonely car was in the way. neither contractors, cops or others were able to get a towtruck to move it. Kind of comical.

But hopefully we will have a nice new street to drive over soon.

(Update: Street is all repaved and smooth like Billy Dee Williams. It looks great!)
