Postal service
The United Sates postal Service has been failing for many years, while UPS and FedEx have been making a profit year after year. The biggest difference is government involvement in USPS, wages and retirement are comparable. Either fund the postal service entirely or privatize them and let them turn it around or fail. I'm sure UPS or FedEx would be more efficient than what we have now and employees would feel more secure.
Rose Garden
We drove through Capaha Park using the west side entrance. What happened to the once beautiful Rose Garden? It is nothing but a bed of weeds! A once beautiful green space in our city is now a weed-filled lot. Anyone?
Roundabout weeds
Why is the Lexington roundabout not cared for? Weeds overrun it. Other roundabouts have well cared for landscaping.
Capahas
Congratulations to the Capahas baseball team on a successful season. Although they came up short in the playoffs, the team had a good run this summer and were a welcome respite from the pandemic fears.
Splash pad
The splash pad in Capaha Park is such a nice addition to the city. Almost anytime I drive by Capaha Park there are children enjoying the new feature. It's been one of the city's more popular additions

Postal service: Go back to the Pony Express days....the mail was probably delivered faster.
Rose Garden: The city "didn't promise you a rose garden".
Roundabout weeds: Do you have a pair of gloves?
Capahas: Congrats to the team - the St. Louis Cardinals could use some back up players.
Splash pad: Well worth the wait.
And that's the way it should be according to Schaefer's World....Thursday August 20, 2020.

Rick just saw this and you beat me to posting this on another thread by an hour an 26 minutes if I remember just when I posted it. Sorry didn't mean to copy your post but had not seen it yet. Oh well it needed to be seen twice I guess.
