Fittingly enough, yesterday they began installing the speed humps on our street.
Here you can see the two guys who got stuck with the job of staying all day until the humps cooled enough to apply paint to them. The fellow standing is holding a styrofoam coffee cup filled with tiny reflective pellets that get spread over the paint as it’s drying.
I heard a couple cars blaze up our street early this morning, but I didn’t get outside fast enough to see if they hit the new humps very hard. I figure it’s not going to take these kids too long to figure out they need to slow down or risk futzing up the suspension in their dad’s car. After all, City High students do have the highest ACT test scores in the state…. (Take that, Waste High!)
