Had to replace my Phone..last week.
It's Much...Much...'Smarter', than the old one...and, me.
oh my.
My Email...is totally messed up.
so...
have to post images here, that I would've liked to have sent to others, through email.
They'll have to look, here...for a bit, until...I get a little 'smarter'.
{Might...take me awhile. : )
I'm an 'Antique'...this new fangled...stuff, makes me Crazy. ; ) }
The Rabbit Hole, to the Left.
Highway 151, with Fairfax's Suicide Trail...to the Right.
March 2021.
Rabbit Hole, to the left.
The New Culvert, North of The Rabbit Hole...
under out Drive...
near, where the Semi...is, in this image.
It's obviously Higher than the South End, where the Rabbit Hole...is.
: ( : ( : (
Above...
Standing on our Highway Drive, looking South...
Rabbit Hole, to the right, or West, March 2021.
The New Culvert is under the Drive.
The Culvert is Higher...than the Land, to the South.
Wonder...how Deep, the Water will have to be...before it can Actually 'Touch' the mouth...of...the
New Culvert???
Guess...we'll be finding that out...when The Rain...comes.
Above..
Before 'The Taking', and Fairfax Suicide Trail Accommodations.
The same ditch.., as in the image just above this one....
looking South, to the East, or Left...of The Rabbit Hole.
That 'Before Ditch'...was two feet, or more... deeper, than the Rabbit Hole's Foundation.
The IDOT District 6, has taken the Entire Ditch Away...
Raised the Elevation...of Highway 151, Solely for Fairfax's Suicide Trail.
{I'm not an Engineer, but...a little common sense, is a pretty good 'Crystal Ball'...
showing What The Future Holds.}
The '49 Ford, was sitting where Stallman Drive 'Now'...Is.
The Light Pole...is Gone.
So is All of the Ditch...that held water away from The Rabbit Hole.
We are in a Basin.
The Rabbit Hole...Is The Ditch.
Above...
You can see where the grass is greenest, that was all...
Ditch.
It held water, from getting to The Rabbit Hole.
You can see the Light Pole, 'Ditch'...to the Point...
then...just above it, is where the '49 Ford...'Was', before the Taking...for Fairfax's Suicide Trail.
Above...
No Ditch...Now.
Too High of a Culvert...under our Drive.
: ( : ( : (
I BEGGED Newman, from District 6, LONG Before Ground Was Broken...and Many Times...After, to Put a Culvert...Under Stallman Drive, so water can Drain to The South....Behind me.
{where I'm standing...to take this image.}
'DOWN HILL'.
I got a Flat...Flat...
"NO"
Over...and Over.
He keeps saying water can run Uphill...to our Drive Culvert, to the North.
I'm sure...it will.
After It Get's So Deep, It'll Drown The Rabbit Hole.
: ( : ( : (
Above...
Ditch...'Before' The Suicide Trail Accommodations, for Fairfax, in front of our Home.
The Saint, and Big Pine, {Pet Cemetery Tree} is to my Right...in this Image.
Above...
The Non Existing 'Ditch'...Now.
{Yeah...the IDOT Took, The Pine...here.
It's still Standing...thanks, to Josey Wales....but, The IDOT Took It, and The Land Around It....even Tho...Their Own...Engineer, in Writing, said it wasn't necessary, without Fairfax's Suicide Trail...{That The IDOT, 'Agreed', with Our 'Recorded Agreement'...Would Not Be.}
Yet...
There It Is.
The White Truck...in this Image...is Driving on Fairfax's Suicide Trail, that, Isn't Supposed To Be...
{According to Our Recorded Settlement Agreement.}
oh my.
Not only...is the water going to drain from the Highway...directly On To Us...
The Vehicle's....have a Clear...Straight Shot....into Our Home, and Rabbit Hole.
I, remember...Years ago, the IDOT District 6, with our Last...'Condemnation', in 1995, said...They Had To Create Ditch's {Take our Land...} so Vehicles that ran off the Highway...could drive through the Ditch, and...could Easily Drive Out.
; )
Where...are 'Those' Vehicle's...Gonna Drive...Now, Boys???
All For A Suicide Trail...for Fairfax, that....Nobody...Should Ever Set Foot On.
Wow.
Can't Wait...to See Their 'Non Existing Safety Study'...They {Never} Conducted...
Concerning The Safety...of Pedestrians, and Cyclists...On Fairfax's Suicide Trail...
that They've Situated Next To One of The Most Dangerous Stretch's Of Highway 151, In Linn County Iowa...
{according to the University of Northern Iowa, IDOT
Traffic Study...in 2010.}
Probably...should've Done THAT...
'BEFORE' The IDOT Spent Millions of Our Tax Dollars, to Build, for Fairfax, Wrongfully.
Wow.
For the record, there ISN'T One.
{Begged Them...All, to Have An Independent Safety Study... Conducted.
again...a Big Fat "NO"...from ALL.
Fairfax Mayor, Council...and IDOT District 6.
Publicly. }
oh...my.
; (
I have many more images...Many.
Coming Soon.
How Deep???
IDOT District 6... 'Improvements'....ain't workin' out...too well...Boys.
This was last year, 2020.
THIS was with about 2 inches of rain.
; )
THIS..Has Never Happened, Before...Even with 7 INCH'S Of HEAVY RAIN, in 2014.
NOT EVER.
in the 40 Years...I've lived here.
Yeah...Boy.
; )
We'll be 'Rollin' In The Deep'.....
soon...
if The IDOT District 6, doesn't DO Something.
THE RIGHT THING.
To Think...
If....
ONLY....
DISTRICT 6, Would've NOT BREACHED OUR RECORDED AGREEMENT,
Kept Their WRITTEN, RECORDED....'WORD',
I'd be writing...about 'Old Souls'.
Beauty.
Good Times.
Those Ship's....
All Sailed...
with Our Breached...
Settlement Agreement,
and the Wrongful...
HIGHLY ELEVATED...
Fairfax Suicide Trail....
The IDOT District 6, Breached Our Recorded Agreement,
to Accommodate,
for
Fairfax City Hall.
Bless Their Heart's.
Bless...
Their...
Heart's.
Love to ya...
Prayers...for All.
Barb C.
Only...God, Knows....How Much, I hate being Lied to...
Misled...
and...So Wrongfully Butchered.
: ( : ( : (
Sadly...
I, won't be the Biggest Loser, here.
Many....are going to Lose...Far More, than we, if this 'Crooked Road'...isn't made 'Right'.
: (
Heartbreaking.
Heartbreaking.
