I had a good chuckle back in Minnesota when I came across toilet paper covering miles of sealed asphalt cracks, but now I laugh no more. I can't tell you how many times today my feet got stuck in the hot, gooey sealant covering this road.
Day 91
The magic of TP
June 26th, 2010
Respect the Toilet Paper! I bow to the powers of TP. Double Ply for sure.
did you pop the tar bubbles? LOved to do that as a kid….. straight ahead…Peaceful day in your America today, No matt??
I haven’t thought about popping tar bubbles since I was a kid in VA 40 some years ago!
Oh my gosh tar bubbles – I remember popping them!! What about walking barefoot on the warm tar and your feet would get all sticky and brownish. Great memories….
All hail the mighty TP. I was amazed at how it was used back in Minnesota.

That stuff is a mess to clean off your shoes to. ( I mean the tar, not the TP).
Those Minnesotans are some crafty fellows. :-)
On behalf of all Minnesota, let me say, “Why, thank you.”
Why don’t you just wrap your boots in TP? Problem solved. ;-) Or make a game of zig-zagging to avoid the tar.
“wrap your boots in TP?” Making me chuckle out loud!
TP rules.
We Minnesotans is SMART!
As a kid I ran around barefoot and loved dipping my big-toes in tar bubbles. You don’t see the actual bubbles anymore.
Me too!! I loved the soft tar on bare feet making an imprint… squishing the tar… memories of old…
Maybe this photo should be titled “Abstract Tar Art”.
Wow! Funny that the tar bubbles comments are so familiar to so many! I haven’t thought of that for over 30 years, yet when I read the comments I can smell the tar and feel the bubbles under my feet,too!
Respect the 2-ply!
