Some of my regular readers might be getting sick of hearing about the Downtown moving days, but I’ve got one more and trust me . . . these posts are popular. Here’s some pictures from yesterday!
However, first if you need more info about moving, go see tenantresourcecenter.org or stop by the Tenant Resource Center today 9 – 6, call us at 257-0006 or email at asktrc@tenantresourcecenter.org or see us at the Triangle Ethnic Fest and Africa Fest this weekend.
Anyways, I took some flyers to distribute to a few places around town and snapped some pics along the way. Got stuck in some awful traffic, my car overheated and I ended up riding my bike the rest of the day, but I got my pics. Enjoy!
The name of the game this year, ROAD CONSTRUCTION . . .
This year, with the carts, the trash looked a little different downtown . . . it harder to dump out a huge tan cart than it is to rip open a trash bag . . . making it harder for the dumpster divers to create such a mess, but nicer for those of us who live among it!
Too bad the private trash haulers didn’t do as well!
Our course, besides the unsightly trash, there was the annual traffic jams . . .
And the creative parking jobs . . .
Some didn’t have vehicles and did it on foot . . .
Those who did have vehicles, packed anything that could move!
Many got everything out of their house, but had no where to go with it!
And sometimes it was hard to tell between difference between the trash and the treasure.
And when they were all moved out, they rested and packed up the cleaning supplies . . .
And there were plenty examples of people making bonehead examples, I’m not sure what MG&E was thinking trimming trees on Mifflin St.
For many, they’re only half way there, they got out yesterday, and today, they move in. Hot, sweaty, crabby, not much good sleep . . . but definitely, something to tell the grandkids about . . . it’s character building . . . and all those nice cliches . . . but mostly, its just insane. There should be a better way to do this!
