THE SLOW ROAD

...aka Highway 71.  Apparently the contractors blame the time it is taking on the weather! - ???  And they plan on a finish by the end of summer.

Speaking of roads, it is again time when our snake friends are appearing as smashed or squirming.  Warn the kids - they are not all safe!

And almost on the subject, wouldn't you think we could get the electronics working after all this time at the east gate?

HIGHWAY 71 TRAFFIC

If you read this prior to Wednesday the 11th, you should know that there's a memorial procession for the slain police officer estimated to be 10 miles long, which will proceed to 71 and 620 tomorrow.  I estimate its arrival at about 3PM but don't take my word for it.  Just know that heading west from the east entrance is likely to be much delayed at that time, or thereabouts.  If it's really that lopng then you won't be able to turn onto SW Parkway either, due to the long line.
