Can't get there ...

This has been a rough week for commuters so far. Yesterday, the Turnpike and major arteries to the south end of the county were completely closed in an attempt to corral a deadly criminal.

This morning, the northbound lanes of the Palmetto were shut down completely due to a multi-vehicle pileup, including semis. Who knows what tomorrow holds. Drive watchfully, y'all.

I think the library is as far as I care to travel, today.

Just as I was getting ready to pack it in and leave the office, I checked my CAD and there was about a hand's length down the screen of the same incident number and the ID number of about every deputy we employ, gathered at I-10 and US441. Looking for someone who was armed and had tried to rob a convenience store. They were stopping traffic in all directions and holding a search perimeter. I guess the rough week is spreading northward.

Not as serious. The county has decided to repave the road on Kendall Drive near my house. They have also decided to make three lanes into one lane where I have to turn to arrive to my driveway. There are also three lights close together mixed with this process which are not timed correctly. So, as I traveled home on Thursday with groceries in the backseat, the PT over heated. Today we are taking the car back to the auto dealer for repair. Humf.
