I forwarded your message to Al Schumacher, Street Superintendent and "Snow Boss". As I recall, the East Isthmus is plowed by Parks who may not be working OT this weekend. Let's find out.

We walked to the market this morning. Took the Isthmus path from Ingersoll to Blair; it was unplowed. Walked the Lake/Isthmus path from Monona Terrace to Blair on the return trip; also unplowed. John Nolen had been plowed, and much of that snow was on the path, so it would probably be better that the path is done after the road. OT side note - there was a water ski show going on. --------------------- Paul T.
