My granddaughter, age 4 1/2, and I were driving down the road in the truck. Off to the left there was a really big meadow with hundreds of big round bales lying in the field. I said "Lina, just look at all those hay bales" and she looked and said "Keep your eyes on the road, Grandpa"...
The turnpike was completed in 1956 and financed with 20 year bonds. But they keep building new entries and exits and new rest areas and the cement center divider etc that all requires more bonds to be issued and they never get paid off. The new bridges at Lawrence took over 3 years to build...
Faster, I'm sorry for your loss. Hopefully it was a blessing so that she wouldn't suffer any longer.
I just lost my cousin last night. He was one of the last relatives I have left except for my daughter and granddaughter. We were pretty close and I'm sure going to miss him.
