Second. The city of Houston needs to spend the holidays and reorganize their hwy signs. They are the most poorly worded signs in the country. I've never seen so many exit only lanes in my life. There is one area where there are 5 lanes and all of them are exit only! WTF. And Houston, give me a heads up a few miles ahead when I need to get from the far right to the far left lane to exit. It's kind of hard to do that when you let me know 100 yards to go in bumper to bumper traffic.

And for you Houston drivers, just pick a lane and stay there. Why is it necessary to change lanes 45 times in a 3 mile stretch?

OK, that's it for now. Love the weather.

I spent some time driving around downtown today. I really really do think there is some potential in the actual downtown area for some actual life. Downtown is very walkable and there are more street level retail now then there was a few years back. I see some real potential there.

You must never been to Dallas/Ft.Worth??? Highway signs are a little more difficult to get use to then Houston to me.
