“Please return the snow shovel and broom.
The shovel is my neighbor’s and she kindly let me borrow it. I lent it to you when we both had to move our cars because DC issued two tickets on the day of the snowstorm.
Apparently U St is an “emergency snow route” yet there is no signage on the block where we parked.
Please drop it off at…”

Thanks to Maddy for sending above yesterday:
“An act of collective altruism took place this afternoon outside Teaism in Dupont Circle. An SUV got stuck in the haphazardly plowed roads across from the tea house, its wheels spinning out as it tried to breach a small snow bank. A few folks tried to get the car moving, unsuccessfully. Then, in a flurry, a group of employees from Teaism filed out front, one by one, adorned with aprons in place of winter coats, and helped propel the car to freedom. The district may not have the perfect infrastructure to deal with the inundation of the winter storm, but DC’s citizens prove once again that they’re able to face unexpected challenges, together and head-on.”
