The wind is blowing in Galveston. It is cold.... oh yeah... the wind is blowing. It is looking like we will be here through December. My guess is January will we spent in Galveston as well.

The traffic is horrible here. There seems to be a lot of people driving, with no real place to go. The freeways here are very confusing. If you see a place you want to go to, the exit for that place was two miles back. The next exit is two miles ahead. You then exit, make U-turn onto a service road and go back to where you thought you needed to be. Most of the time you find that you can't get to where you wanted to get. You must go past your desired destination...once again..and get back onto the freeway. Then you must remember which exit you should have taken the first time through. If you miss it again, the process repeats itself. I have come to realize....If Texas would just put the exits where they needed to be to begin with, the U.S. would use about 10 million less barrels of oil per day. It would be a huge step towards foreign oil independence. So....write your congressman. Start a movement. Have Texas fix their freeway exits.

Stay Safe.
