Yesterday, just after reading about the dust advisory, I was driving on Westwood. Up ahead it looked like a truck coming to a fast stop in the left turn lane in a big cloud of dust. When he turned, I saw that it was one of our street sweepers!
I guess he went up the street where it wasn’t watered down.

That’s why Kristy didn’t come here. She didn’t want to get lung disease like the rest of us PG plebes have to worry about.
