They are a common here....the third wednesday of the month after 7am ...from April till early November.

They come down our street every other Tuesday. I think all the residential streets in town get swept that often. This is year round. Business area's may get more.

Yes, they have street sweepers in the town. Also the other day was a highway sweeper on our main highway.

Oh yes we have street sweepers. All throughout the year.

I know it's spring when the neighbors start leaving their doors open and playing "gansta rap" at inhuman noise levels. One rental house in the whole neighborhood and it's rented to some very strange people with some very strange hours.

When you start pulling dandelions out of your flower beds!!!!

We have them here. It is a sign of spring when they come. I don't know how well ours clean but they make a lot of noise.

Our streets all get swept once a week. At least they always have. That's one of the things the city is thinking of cutting out due to funding problems from the state of IL.

Funding problems??? I thought it was governor problems! We spend a lot of money prosecuting polititians, but I'm sure we don't get all the ones that deserve it.

You know it is spring when (remember Golden Girls - Rose's definition of Gerkonernochen ("a Swedish word - in Rose's vocab) - the moment dog poop turns white) you see Gerkonernochen all over the back yard!!!!! Edie
