UP goes thru our town right now, about 100 trains a day, so that will increase rail traffic even more. As it is, there are times when cars are sitting at crossings up to 30 min. at a time waiting for the trains to clear the crossing.
We have a viaduct in which we can go under the tracks BUT there is a bunch of road construction going on in that area & its hard to get to right now.

You okay up your way?
People forget the fact that they have the ability to put aside differences, and work towards a common goal....until negative situations like this happen. It doesn't matter if you're white, african american, italian, asian, korean, hispanic, purple polka-dotted, or otherwise. When the chips are down, and people are hurting....I got all of their backs.
Of course, with the usual caveat that if you try to cause harm or severely screw those over whom are in need, you're likely to catch an earful, if not a boot in the ass. That way the men and women that put the b.s. aside can get back to doing what they came to do, instead of having to deal with somebody that tried to take advantage of a bad situation. And I can go back to trying to fulfill my responsibilities as a husband, father, man, and a member of the social fabric that is bent on stopping shit from falling to pieces, so as long as I can.
You take care, and remain safe. My best wishes go to you, your family, and all of the folks.
BTW: Sorry for the late post. Went down to the store to make sure 3rd shift was okay, picked up a few groceries and some more water (saving the filter for when shtf) and made sure there were plenty of pallets of water and gatorade down off of the steel in the instance that a boil order is enacted.
