Rant and Rave: Reader thanks comic creators for Schulz tributes

RAVE to all of the comic strip writers who paid tribute to Charles Schulz and his “Peanuts” characters on Schulz’s 100th birthday.

RANT to street cleaners. I drive north through the Arboretum toward the construction in Montlake to get to work. Many times, there’s a street-cleaning truck heading west on Lake Washington Boulevard going 2 mph. This blocks cars halfway into the Arboretum. Why isn’t there someone helping to wave drivers around the truck? Why are they cleaning the street during commuting hours? People need to drive around the truck when it’s clear and some do. Thank you to them. 

RAVE to the tough-looking fellow at the Golden Gardens playground who carefully and methodically wiped the rain off each and every slide and swing so the little kids could stay dry.
