@kismatt: I have a WI dairy I stop by on the road to Darwin, MN, and the place is a small store attached to a family dairy. I was curious back in 2013 and stopped in, and it changed my life. It's in DeForest, off of I-90.
My first visit I spent nearly $200. LOL
@Faustus: Likely. It wouldn't be the first time they or anyone else has done that, alas.
@AtomicSnarkasm: No, none of this has been new work, not by a mile. That said, two big interstate bridges in WV were getting a totes new upgrade. Also one goodly stretch of I-77 in VA was getting redone and exit added to connect small towns more conveniently to the interstate. (The feds are doing the same thing up I-77 in NC from Charlotte up to the VA border, started it all back in 2014.)
@GaryPoole: I'm on a 14. I got a free upgrade back then from AT&T because I'd had my old iPhone on the service for six years.
: That said, I drove much of the drive in OH once out of WV on US and state highways, and I gotta say that so far, the roads have been in excellent condition, especially given the sheer volume of semis I've passed and been passed by. So there's something they're doing right, at least.
: I am in Harrison, OH now and head out in the morning for Madison, WI. I went to the Waffle House for dinner and then to Planet Fitness because I'd been in a car for seven hours. I met some really nice folks. That said, I can understand why more than a few people want to get out of Ohio.
: 30mins. or so until it's time to hit the road. Gotta do the final check on the packing and the house.
Stay hydrated, #CoSoNauts.
: The fleecing continues over on Facebook. There are also shot glasses for sale, and the tagline for them is "He took a shot for you. Now take one for him."
This has got to be one of the worst, most dangerously precarious times in United States history, at least since the Civil War. That said, it's not like it hasn't been coming down the pike quite loudly for a goodly while. Old sins cast long shadows, and scum always rises to the top.
