Perfect Neighbors

Last month, our neighborhood association honored Nuch and I with a small gift and a life-sized poster at the entrance to our village to show their appreciation for the considerate way in which we park our cars.  Not all, but many of our neighbors, simply park along the street instead of pulling into their driveways.  With our narrow lanes, it becomes a bit congested and driving through it can be like traversing an obstacle course.

Unsurprisingly, this positive re-enforcement has done nothing to improve the situation.  Making things worse is the fact that Nuch and I didn't always park in the driveway - there are times when it's late at night, it's raining, or you have to pee, and you just want to get out of the car and get inside, but, now, with our new found notoriety we are shamed into always parking inside.

The other family in the poster was honored for picking up their dog's sh!t.
