I was on 81 south tonight going to Staunton and there was a pretty good sized fire burning on the median strip. I tried to get a picture with my camera phone but didn’t get it out on time. On another note they will be closing both rest areas between here and Staunton. That means your going to have to find a gas station if you have to pee on the way to Staunton.

This has been a pretty random post. It’s been a long day and I am going to sleep…good night

If you plan to do a lot of driving today, you should make sure to obey all traffic laws  and follow the speed limit. On my way to Staunton and back on I-81 yesterday I saw 14 cops and almost all of them had somebody pulled over. Most were in unmarked Dodge Chargers (or whatever Dodge model they use). I saw two people get pulled over on Vine Street, next to the Sheetz on Route 33. I’m not sure what the occasion is but they were out today too, I saw three more this morning from the exit on Route 11 (near the truck stop) to the 33 exit. Looks like they are trying to make up for some budget cuts or they are really really cracking down on text messages. Drive safe today, and don’t get a ticket because the police are out there doing their doing their jobs to a T.

UPDATE:

This could be why so many police officers are out ticketing drivers.
