Its kept on St Thomas until needed on STX but only for the annual pre-triathalon fix-up.

Same thing with the machine that paints the lines on roads.

Jackson has a pothole hotline residents can call to report damaged roads.

A pothole hotline - what a concept. We could use one here, too!

It was wonderful when someone had spray painted circles around the potholes. It really helped with navigating around them.

It is definitely not on the roads.

I understand it's the freeze thaw that causes all the pot holes.

It would be fun to start our own Guerilla Gardening!

See a pothole? Plant a flower in it!

theres still enough smooth road for my motorcycle, especcially when following new fiber asphalt, it's like they made a nice mini-road just for me!

Loved the letter in the Avis last week about the road dept. turning potholes into speed bumps. Never ceases to amaze me how the people who do the work have to drive on the very same roads they fix, er, well, attempt to...

Let's hear a rousing applause for mr. SMALL!!!!!!!!!!!

These are all very clever responses. I no longer have a road, I have a series of potholes. I call it "Cruzan Crime Control". No one wants to drive my road. The gravel trucks tore it up real good.
