I wrote this to my Homeowners, let's see if it does anything.

As I’m riding my bike everyday around Woodlawn I’m seeing a problem with overgrown trees in the City Parish Right of Way, “This if the land in between the road and the sidewalk”, It’s getting to where you have to get in the middle of the road to avoid hitting overgrown limbs and two cars can’t pass without getting scratched especially trucks. This area also houses the Baton Rouge Water Works pipes and fire plug as wells. If the trees burst one of these pipes or cracks the sidewalks the homeowner can be held liable for repairs. In addition trees planted in this area make it hard for your next door neighbor to see getting out of their driveway. I like mine opened for Security reasons as well. Just a thought for those that may not have known.

Too funny. I had no problems with our ArcticFox TT. With the RW, I need to pull out of the driveway and literally back down our street to access another side street, which then gets us to a main road.

We need to buy a real quite chain saw from Home Depot and do some midnight clearing, like the whole trees. lol

Okay, my Good Sam Rand McNally RVND 7725LM just came in by UPS just now, I love new toys, now if I can teach an old dog new tricks I'll be fine. Probable be a while on this one.

Encountered a tunnel on Hwy 101 North of Florence where the height at the curb was only 11 feet and 14' 06" in the middle. Fortunately I didn't meet any opposing traffic.
