Winter Wonderland In Dobbs Ferry - Part 2: Here come the Snow Plows!
ok, I've finished cleaning my walkway and guess who has just started cleaning Cedar & Main Streets - wait for it, wait for it - you guessed it The Town!
Winter Wonderland In Dobbs Ferry Today...
Well I must start out by saying that the road crews in this town once again didn't touch anything until close to 8am or even later.
Heck I had shoveled my own stairwell, curb and patio (where tree limb crashed onto last night) way before 9:37 and the sidewalks throughout Dobbs Ferry will still not touched. Try catching the train the way I did at 6:45am it was like walking through a tundra. The pathway to the trains was non-existant and you'd need a team of sled dogs to get you through it. Dobbs Ferry you truly dropped the ball on this storm and it was worse than the one earlier in the week.
By the time I returned home - yes, I took the Metro-North into the City and then caught a train right back home, the Metro North tracks and platform were still under a foot or more of SNOW! HELLO DOBBS FERRY is anyone there??? We could use some sidewalk cleaners stat!
But in the towns defense I must say that there are plenty of downed trees and people without power but again the roads have been bad and have only been getting worse since last night (Thursday) at around 4:30 pm onward. Sounds to me that they figured that it's just Friday so why clean the roads until the full storm is over and lets close the schools and let those who have to go to work fend for themselves.
I'd write to the Mayor but I don't think that would do any good. The last one said that he would take measures to insure that this never happened again and well it happened two more times with him in office so I can only imagine that it'll happen a few more times with this one.
So today I give my little ole' town of Dobbs Ferry, NY a great old Goose-Egg for their efforts in keeping the roads safe for it's residents.

Andrew Koenig's Body Found
The body of Growing Pains star Andrew Koenig was found in a Vancouver park Thursday, the victim of a suicide.
"My son took his own life," his father, Walter Koenig, said in an emotional news conference in the park.
The actor's body was found about 11:30 a.m. in a heavily wooded area just off a bridle path in 1,000-acre Stanley Park, a favorite place for Koenig to frequent during his visits to Vancouver.
The body was found by a private search team of his family and friends. His father was in the midst of searching when he received a cell phone call from other searchers who discovered the body.
"I went to the site," Walter Koenig said, adding that's when he discovered his son had committed suicide.
