Traffic
Well, I'm really glad that gasoline prices are going down just in time for my long weekend coming up. I'll be out in Ohio for my class reunion this coming weekend. Hopefully the weather will be nice on Thursday when I'll be driving out there, but I could be hitting rain at least half of the way out there.
I may do some other things while I'm out there, it will depend on what I will be able to do with my budget that I will end up with.
I hope to go to Columbus to watch the Clippers play on Sunday before I come back home just in time to rest and go to work for three days and take off to Connecticut for a wedding the following weekend.
The problem with traffic

Traffic
Once upon a time when I was a new driver in Ohio, I thought that the traffic was bad, especially around Cleveland. Of course my eyes were opened when I lived in Texas and trying to get around in Houston or Corpus Christi and the ongoing construction. That was ten times worse than driving in Cleveland. However, now living in the Northeast, traffic is a joke. I avoid driving in Boston because it just isn't worth my getting frustrated or so angry that I go around or park and take the train in to Boston. And also with the added cell phone useage, its like taking your life and vehicle in your own hands. Its bad enough when people don't use directionals and read signs, but when they are talking on the phone...it makes matters worse. The only places that I like to drive is up in Portland or Lewiston, Maine or two towns in New Hampshire like Keene or Concord.
