It was so good of you to help this woman out. I imagine she was pretty freaked out.
i wondered the same - I guess I sorta went with the thought that a)we were taking care of her, b) they weren't following, and c) a cruiser went up 16th just as we passed our house.

Question: do I write to the streets dept to request more lighting on that block of 16th tween South and Bainbridge?

Also - the fact that they have begun foundation laying on 16th and kater (to the west side) is great. Its the east side of 16th that seems to beckon the hoodlums . and tree man garden doesn't help at night. (dunno if that's the right name but its what I call it)
