44: Pease to Niles
Linking to anchors currently broken, so you'll have to scroll to see the medium version of the picture you clicked on.
The home stretch. After the Windsor/24th intersection, there's another diagonal to navigate which
splits off Pease from Windsor and another street whose name I can't remember now. I go uphill a bit
on Pease past the famous mansion of a former governor to the 4-way-stop at Niles, and then it's the
same way home as to work, except it's all downhill! (Well, except for the long wait at the West Lynn / Enfield
light).
The pothole shown here appears to be the result of a tiny spring (we also have a few in my neighborhood),
and is filled in like clockwork every month or two by city crews. One would think that after a few times
it would be more cost-effective to narrow the intersection and allow the spring to pump out its tiny
water output in a grassy area, but that requires more than the typical amount of forward thinking.
