Our driveway / alley

Post by Doug Teulie »

For the last 5 months the city has been installing a water main behind our house. They finally filled in the six foot pits but the surface still is less than desirable. Needless to say we have been trying to find homes for all our cars. One is still in prison.

Try some 1/2 inch thick plywood sheets if you really need to move the car.

They said the alley will be closed for one month. The bad thing is that they didn't warn us until 2 days before they tore everything up. Luckily I was able to get the car out before the night event. Don so nicely stored my car for a week. Now she is stored at Doug's work.

I have a spare garage you can park it in in Long Beach if you'd like Kathy. Near 7th and Orange. Let me know.

We have an uncovered lot in Pasadena. you'd probably need a cover, but it's free.
