On Saturday, May 6, at about 9:15 a.m. Ken Palmer (above foreground) and his wife Tracey of the Grant and Auburn Block Club were busily cleaning the intersection of Grant and Auburn as part of the Great American Cleanup. Suddenly a loud grinding sound was heard. Frank Miltello (above right was making a left off of Grant Street and onto Auburn when the bolts attaching his right front rim snapped, sending his wheel rolling down the street. Ken Palmer wasted no time offering Frank Miltello some assistance in the form of a jack with wheels. Soon after, Frank's friend Joe Otto (standing behind Ken Palmer) arrived on the scene to try and aide in the adverse situation. The three men raised the car's axle up off the ground with the jack. Joe Otto then used his truck to push Frank's car out of the intersection so that it would no longer block traffic. Talk about the city of good neighbors! photo: Eric Ortner
