Urgent Off-Street Parking Need -- We Will Pay You

[plumtreeblossom.livejournal.com]

Hi neighbors. Is there anyone living within walking distance of 7 Bay State who could share/rent us off-street parking in their driveway until late Sunday or early morning Monday at the latest?

Long story short-- we were stranded in Quincy last night with no power or heat. Made it back to the S'ville house this afternoon with cat in tow but now can't park anywhere. Jay will have to take the car back to Quincy and stay in the no-heat if we can't find something. One compact car, Davis/Ball/Powderhouse, even Teale if it comes to that. Name your price. We are lowly university grunts, but we'll be grateful for a reasonable offer!

EDIT: We got a spot! Thank you everybody! We're safe. Whuff....who needs a drink? (*raises hand*)

Our driveway can have room for your car but there's a twist - our pathway to the street is only about 2/3 shoveled and there would need to be shoveling out the space between our car (at the edge of the driveway currently) and JB's car (at the back of the driveway). We could then pull our car forward and you could park at the edge of our driveway.

I wish I could make it easier for you but neither of us can shovel any more today, after so many hours, without seriously risking throwing out our backs. But if you're willing to shovel, you can park here. We're at 161 Willow.

They got a response to a post elsewhere and seem to be all set. But thanks!

Would it work to drive further afield, out of walking distance, and take a cab back home?

I'm glad you found a spot. I would have loaned you mine (which I don't use), if I lived nearby.

You live in Somerville; shouldn't the municipal lots be open to you?
