August 28 Chicago's Two Seasons



There is an old joke here in Chitown about our seasons. Chicago has 2 seasons, winter and construction. Like most jokes, there is some truth to it. The toll road has been under construction for the better part of the past 5 years, now they decided to add another lane. And since Obama started handing out TARP money like Pacman Jones at a strip club, most of the local roads are also under construction. Today I got stuck on the northbound I-294 toll road between 159th St and 127th St, approximately 6 miles, for 75 minutes. Welcome to construction season and when it's over we get winter.
