Well, since I was already being cranky and all, I figured I’d post this little tidbit as well. I found out this morning that our fair city has had a blond moment…since they were building a new high school near research park, they decided to cut a road from slaughter into research park to help with traffic flow. Well, they put up a light and columns on slaughter…however, if you were to turn in and follow the road, you end up at the new high school. Apparently the city ran out of money and could not afford to finish cutting the road through, so the only option is to cut through the high school parking lot, which of course you are not supposed to do. Looks like to me they would have thought about that before putting up the light and the signs and all. Anyway, it made me laugh and helped brighten my morning after that 40 minute drive.
But part of me wonders…whose engineering and financial brilliance do we have to thank for all of this?

Either Loretta Spencer or Dallas Fanning.
Hrmm… Actually, isn’t the new Catholic High School on Madison City property? At least, from the description, that sounds like the high school you’re referring to.
No, there’s a new High school Right by Cummings Research Park for the West Huntsville school district. I believe it is Columbia High school.
Yes, it’s Columbia High. Catholic is JUST in the edge of Huntsville … I think. Unless Madison has the property rights east of Slaughter south of Old Madison Pike. I dunno where that line is.
Kat, the road to Columbia is probably about 40% of the way up Slaughter between OMP and 72.
