^^^^^ Oh this town is just choking with self-righteous prigs busily keeping tabs on their "footprint" (and nosing around into all their neighbors' "footprints"). I just realized that the truck we're taking out tomorrow morning is the furthest one up the (single-wide) driveway, so we get to start up and move all three just to get out. It'll probably p!$$ off the whole block. I can hardly wait.
