That shopping center is _way_ inadequate on parking to start with;
snow only makes it worse.

I used to live on Grand Avenue for a while; I could walk to Penzey's
(and did). Yeah, much easier than having to park down there (though
I did have to do the parallel-parking thing in front of my place). I
even learned to parallel-park on the _other_ side of a one-way
street. Skills you can use in civilian life ...
