Blacktop creativity

I COULDN’T HELP WONDERING the other day while walking to the post office if this is a form of artistic impression using blacktop as a medium or a quick fix on an old city problem. So I take it the city crew was out patching holes when they came across a broken concrete curb in need of repaid. So Billy Bob must have said to Bobby Bill, “Hey, I can solve this,” then proceeded to slather on the asphalt. The tricky part must have been rounding off the hot road mix without using their hands in an attempt to match the concrete curb. Ingenious!
