Is it just me, or is it unusually light?

Amazing, no one is at my workplace. Gas prices are the cheapest they have been since 2010. Doesn't make sense. Maybe people want to stay in town this year.

The backup has started at Richmond Hill. It's looked liked this for the last 3 camera updates (15 minutes):

One of my friends posted that it wasn't so bad when she came through 30 minutes ago, but looking at the cams, it looks like the backup now goes around the corner before Richmond Hill, and it's backed up at Pine Junction just before that merge now too.

Is backed up from the light in PJ on the north side for at least 1/2 mile. And backed up going down into Shaffers Crossing, but that is probably because everyone has to slam on their brakes to read the new sign.

Elly Weber tagged us in this post on Twitter an hour ago, I think it's before the light at Pine Junction?

From Debbie Solko, on our Facebook Page:
She said it "Took me a hour and half from 285n Wads to Pine Junction ;("

Crossroads Pub & Grill is hopping! :) Looks backed up through the light on the Neptune Chimney/Crossroads webcam.

Hey, all of you who get to enjoy the beauty and splendor (and challenges) of the Colorado mountains every day of the year, deserve to have to put up with some inconvenience a few weekends out of the year! <evil grin>
