Opus 2014-79: On the Street: Red Light Day

Getting to work in a metropolitan area is always a challenge.

I used to just go to the freeway and take what came.  Now I have a smart phone and every morning I check Google Maps.  It has a “traffic” button that lets me know how congested the freeways are.  If I see any red I take the streets.  As it works out I only take the freeway about once a week because even at 6:00 A.M. they are socked in.

Tuesday on the streets it was a Red Light Day.  Some days it is like the signals are set just for me.  The traffic is moderate and the people know what they are doing.  Not Tuesday.  The traffic elves were always one intersection ahead of me.  It seemed like they wanted me to stop at every cross street that had a traffic light.  Then they had set the timing so that there were extended waits at each stop. 

It was a long morning.  I got through two Alistair Begg sermons plus a bit of music to fill in the final few moments. 

Retirement really sounds good.
