Change is constant. I know that isn't original but it is true. The way Baton Rouge looked and felt in the 1980's, 1990's is a far cry from today (April 18, 2018). Life is no longer just fluid. You must plan when you will leave your house to be somewhere. If it is on the other side of the Interstate you will add at least 30 minutes to drive time during a "good" part of the day. I find myself not leaving our home for days at a time due to the traffic.

Our local politicians have continued to waltz around this issue and found ideas like "moving the zoo" to be more priority. What is wrong with these people?
