COLUMBIA SPY

And this is why you shouldn't walk on a frozen river - any river - our river. http://www.cw15.com/news/local/story/Man-and-woman-hunting-for-turtles-fall-through-ice/xGOv2YxhIEudD5uJ_cCCKA.cspx

Look who didn't shovel their sidewalk.

The receding river left behind some frozen hula skirts, ice aprons, and snow sculptures along the shore.

This morning, Officer Mann caught a stray dog that was running loose in the area around Barber Street and Route 462.  The dog eluded capture several times and also ran across the busy highway before being apprehended in Bob Snyder's yard, next to Snyder's Market.

A Columbia man tried to help a mom and two kids stranded in the cold at a bus stop but got no answers or help from RRTA.   Go  HERE  for the article.

Go  HERE  for the article which states, in part: "To the west, a marker pole stands tilted and rusted along Route 441 near Columbia." Today, I took these two shots of the pole, which is bent over and broken at the top, where the sign was removed. But who removed it? It went missing fairly recently. This is how the sign looked a few years ago.
