Mom would say "it's raining pitchforks and hammer handles" and Dad would say it was a "frog strangler". Love those old sayings.

I see on the news you guys out east are getting a lot of flooding.
Hopefully a tree will get you're attention. LOL
Little gnomes with the fishing rod....
That's hilarious.
In all honesty, the potholes probably are filled by the street department. I rarely see a roller. Holes related to water and gas repairs are filled temporarily - usually by by the contractor. Temporary fill vary from steel plate, to loose gravel. Then the water department or PGW send a crew or contracts for a real patch. Sometimes those are done well - concrete, then hot asphalt rolled, and edges sealed.
Morning MOPAR hoarders....
Went to a evening car show last night 6-9pm.
Makes for a long day when you get home at 10.
Show was a little strange, trophy was a colored printed page in a plastic holder...
Wife said she was NOT going back to that one next year.

They've been spending big $ on the California Highways at the Interstate/Federal levels anyway. City, State and County levels, not so much.
Sticks and cones will break my car's bones....
There's a house in my neighborhood with a creek running through it, the guy used to have a wooden silhouette of a guy fishing...

I saw a new to me patching procedure for concrete freeways earlier this year. US 101 nearby, guessing that concrete was placed in the late 50s early 60s. Saw out the offending pavement, remove it, doctor the sub-grade up some, and place a "pre-cast" panel of concrete in it's place. Fill the gaps at the sides of the new concrete with an epoxy and bring in the grinder/milling machine to make the transitions nice.
Just goy back. That car runs like a raped ape now neve drove in a 440 six pack car before.

Friend of mine had a 340 6-pack TA Challenger. When those secondary carbs came in, it was "HOLD ON BABY!"
