potholes

A new USA Today study ranks us worst.

Potholes. You love to hate them, and this is the time of year when you see the biggest problems. Wintertime is always the worst for potholes.

Some things in life are better with holes in them. Roads aren't one of them. Yet somehow, Washington is top of the latest pothole survey.

I used to work at a sporting goods store, here locally in the Wenatchee Valley. Day in and day out, we would hear of stories from the Columbia River, Potholes Reservoir, to distant lakes.

Commissioners in Chelan County are reporting that roads have been especially vulnerable to pot holes and buckling lately.
