White Dog sat in her window quietly amazed as the road construction crew dug a car-sized hole deeply into the middle of the street just beyond our driveway. She couldn't contain herself when they first put ladders into the hole and began climbing in and out; she barked up a storm. Now late at night, the abandoned hole has been surrounded by concrete barricades even further restricting access to our drive and an eight-foot tall mountain of dirt is our street view. As White Dog and Steve prepare for their walk, I wonder what she will think when she sees the mess up close.
