A funny thing happened to Jamie Sedlmayer and her boyfriend, Les, while delivering papers at Coeur d’Alene Place early Tuesday morning. They got plowed in. We’re not talking about being plowed in while they were in a driveway, tossing papers for sleeping customers. They were plowed in WHILE driving on the street. Seems Jamie and Les were delivering the Coeur d’Alene Press in front of a snowplow when they pulled over to let the driver pass. He did, with blade down, creating a snow berm around Jamie’s vehicle, trapping it. While Les tried to dig the car out, Jamie delivered her papers the old-fashioned way. On foot. Jamie, who provided Huckleberries with details for this item, said on Facebook: “Moral of the story is, when a snow plow comes up behind and rides your (bumper), you do not kindly move over to let them pass. They won’t be so courteous as they leave you stranded at 2:30 a.m. with a 3-foot frozen berm trapping you.” Ultimately, Jamie and her boyfriend were pulled out of the berm by her district manager. And, when this item appeared on Huckleberries Online, Deputy City Administrator Sam Taylor phoned Jamie to apologize. Sam told Huckleberries: “This is a great teachable moment for us.” And that’s why CdA is called “The City with a Heart”/DFO, Daily Huckleberries. More here.
