Had some minor drama at the ranch the other night too, Rose. I was hurting a bit, so I got really stoned and fell asleep around four in the morning. Between four and six, some low life moron decided that the dead end road I live on would be a perfect place to dump the trash from his bathroom remodel. A one person hot tub, cement board, busted up tile, and wood scraps greeted me from thirty feet across from my driveway.
Our elected officials at the Township said it was a county road commission problem. The county road commission said it was their problem IF it was in the road. We called the cops. Cops show up and said it's the township's problem. Went down to the township and they said they'd contact the road commission.
Long story short, a mid-thirties young man from the county came out, sifted through the trash, found some clues to who did the deed, came back with a truck this morning, and picked up the mess! Saved me the trouble of loading the whole thing up and dumping it in front of the township hall.
People can slam union workers all they want, but these county employees do their jobs with great diligence. Hats off to the Genesee County Road Commission!
