Block Hwy 97 on the east side of 29. Eliminates cross traffic.
Fix 29 so north bound traffic can’t turn back south into the tom thumb.
Make all tom thumbs traffic come out on Crabtree, they are widening it.

What ever we think we had better pay attention in the intersection.

Move the driver’s brain from where they sit to their heads,,,true,,,this is much less than the proposed 500 ft ,, but probably harder to get done !

Move the intersection 500 ft. north and the problem is solved.

Most log trucks have governors on them that they cannot exceed a certain speed. Even though it looks and sounds like it is going a 100mph its not. You cannot judge speed by the sound nor the way it looks.

REGARDING:
“Huie! I used to work with your daddy. I probably ate some of those roosters….. ”

He had a better sense of humor than I do.

The problem with the intersection is it’s proximity to the Tom Thumb store.

The store should have been built further up or down from the intersection.

We need a zoning and planning board.

Our County Commissioner: “I’m confused if they crow,” Barry said, admitting that raising chickens was not his area of expertise. “Perhaps they do.”

I had high hopes for Commissioner Barry. Red flags popping up, now. Never thought I would have a Commissioner who didn’t know whether or not a rooster crows. Where did you say you are from???

You are a hoot, Huie! I used to work with your daddy. I probably ate some of those roosters…..

We had a rooster who didn’t crow.
Unfortunately the other one did.
After it awakened my father who was working graveyard shift, Daddy lined up both roosters with his shot gun and the non crower died for the sins of the crower.
(We never did find out where they came from, just that they left two bantam widows behind to mourn.)
