The new North Roosevelt Boulevard is terrific! A pleasure to travel!
There are a few problems. Some in the process of correction. Others, not.
One is that the driving lanes on both sides are open to bicycle traffic. Bicycles are actually painted on the road way signifying A-OK. Envision it. Bicycles driving down the middle of a Boulevard lane.
A disaster in the making! Not yet, however.
Yesterday, the wrong of permitting the bikes was evident. Traffic is exceptionally heavy this week. A holiday week. Many tourists. Families.
Traffic was unusually slow on the Boulevard going into town. I thought there might be an accident. There was not. It was a family riding their bicycles.
Each helmeted. The only safety feature taken into consideration.
The father in the lead bike. A small child sitting in the basket in front. This is going to sound like the Three Bears story. Mama bicyclist on the second bike. Then three smaller bikes with three children riding them. The oldest could not have been ten. All in a straight line, one behind the other. Oblivious to the traffic hold up they were causing and the danger the family was in.
Publix’s parking lot was a no parking zone. I had to go around the lot three times to find a spot.
I had a noon appointment with Tammy for a manicure. Lee Nails was packed! Locals and tourists. I was the only male. The ladies obviously getting ready for New Year’s Eve. A lot of chatter and laughing.
I wrote one more chapter to Growing Up Italian. Concrete Sidewalks Grass Backyards. Who had a backyard?
Then spent considerable time preparing for tonight’s blog talk radio show. A good one. Some things are in my craw. Bothering me. Tonight, I will vent. Tomorrow, some will write and tell me I’m crazy.
Some of the topics of note include my analysis of the New York City Police Department problem, a lawsuit being filed against the New York City Police Department every 2 1/2 hours, Greece on a collision course with Germany which perhaps could result in war, some consider Ukraine the prelude to World War III, and the U.S. purportedly being out of Afghanistan.
My analysis of the NYPD situation and Obama’s comments re finally being out of Afghanistan are guaranteed to stir the pot.
Join me for an interesting and challenging half hour. Tuesday Talk with Key West Lou. Nine this evening. www.blogtalkradio.com/key-west-lou.
Enjoy your day!
So now the Boulevard was worth the wait and all the complaints ? Infrastructure takes time. This took too much time, but, improvements take time.
Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your favourite justification appeared to be on the internet the easiest
factor to bear in mind of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed whilst folks consider issues that they just do not recognise about.
You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest as smartly as defined
out the entire thing without having side effect , other people could take a signal.
Will likely be again to get more. Thanks
