Renewed Appreciation

The ongoing sewer upgrading project in our neighborhood has given me renewed appreciation for things I usually take for granted...














Like sidewalks...














And water at the turn of the tap...

Broken pipes down the street have resulted in it being turned off a number of times.














Now I keep a pot of water on the stove, just in case...

Electricity
...














These giant diggers have come in conflict with overhead wires, and we've lost electricity a few times, too.














And, of course, a clear, smooth road home...














I have undervalued predictability!

The old cliche is true: You have to lose something you take for granted in order to appreciate what you have!
