Approximately six years ago, I loaded all my stuff, my father, and my brother into a Volkswagen Golf and set out on the road to attend The Texas University in College Station. On the way, we got stuck in some nasty construction traffic on I-65 outside of Nashville. Much to my chagrin, on the way to Louisville this weekend, it took half an hour to go five miles on that same stretch of interstate, due to construction. Apparently, the DOT employees have been busy leaning on their shovels for the last several years.
