Thursday Morning

I'm at home today so no new road condition pictures. It's another sunny day this morning here in the La Crosse area though. As always drive safe.

Fun Shot of the Day -- Green Bug on the Road

Thursday Morning Commute

There is a lot more traffic then usual on i90 this morning. I spose it's probably due to summer travelers. What was odd was that some people were really speeding a lot while others were moving notably slower then the speed limit. Probably the effects of high gas prices (guess not everyone cares). As always, drive safe.

Tuesday Morning

I'm staying put at home today so no new road condition pictures from i90. It's a nice sunny morning though and with only a slight chance of rain this afternoon driving on i90 shouldn't be a problem. As always drive safe.

Fun Shot of the Day -- Entrance ramp to i90 from La Crecent, MN

Monday Morning Commute

There seemed to be a lot more roadkill then normal on my drive along i90 this morning. I spose this could be due to more deer and animals on the move lately but my guess is that now that summer is here, more people are traveling meaning that it's more likely for deer to get hit when crossing the highway. It seemed like I saw more licenses plates from out of the area then normal today including one from New York and another from Florida. If you're going out on the road be sure to drive safe.

Fun Shot of the Day -- Now that's a big drain

Friday Morning Commute

It's another beautiful morning. Temperatures are finally getting up into the 80's where they should be and there are getting to be more bugs out (as you can see by my dirty windshield this morning). Drive safe and enjoy the weekend.

Fun Shot of the Day -- Cass Street bridge through the rain

Thursday Morning

Nice to have all this sunshine back in the area again. I heard this morning that all the area rivers are below flood stage so maybe things will settle down back to normal. I'm at home today so no new pictures but I did want to share that my little car just turned over 160,000 miles. My wife bought it used in college with around 30,000 miles and it's been a good car for us. That's a lot of commuting and hopefully it will still be going strong for another 160,000. Time will tell. As always drive safe.

Fun Shot of the Day -- 160,000 miles and counting

Monday Morning Commute

A new work week is here and things are finally starting to dry out a bit. One good thing I heard about all the rain and flooding on the local news this morning was that mosquito populations shouldn't be any worse due to all the water we've seen. In fact they theorized that many of the mosquito eggs were probably washed south of us as far as Illinois perhaps so that could be a good thing for us this summer. For now I'm just happy to be seeing the sun again today. As always drive safe.
