.......Yeah. Try not to think about the rising gas and food prices to go along with that.

I'm moaning and groaning about my electric bill already! I think on the average our first 100 degrees is in middle to late June but we've already had it!

No , but I think they're building one from south FW to DFW Airport in a few years.

Yep. That's exactly why I asked. It's happening anyway. I think the SH-121 Tollway should start construction either this year or next. It's going to run from SW Fort Worth, through my side of town in the Hulen area all the way up to DFW International.

I just wonder where they'll come up with the land area for that road, esp. as it goes through the downtown area.
