Already in another thread, but here it is again. Highway 290 North (not moving - creeping at best). Notice the Inbound lanes.   Notice the people getting out of their cars (because it's not moving & it's close to 100 F here).  No gas anywhere within at least 100 Miles  People just camping out trying to stay cool   This is what happens when you procrastinate (welcome to Russia):  The littering starts (the parking lot smells like piss):

Never, whatever you do....become a "refugee." "Refugee" means that you have given up your soul to the government to do with as they will. You will be at their mercy. NEVER be a refugee. Countless generations in Europe have learned this...Americans....not so much.
