Welcome To Case's Column
Let me say a big welcome to all of you for joining me here. I'm going to call these blog meetings Case's Column. I wanted to use "Corner", but that was already taken.
Since 2008, it's been a real privilege to come on here and share some of my life with you, and it's a big world where we live.
In these blogs, I'll just speak whatever is on my mind, but we will be playing within the rules here. I may pick a particular topic, point out an event, or shoot the breeze. I'm a little bit of an essayist at times, so I'll just speak what's on my mind, and I might tell a story or two. Or, I might spew out an opinion or three. There will be some serious moments, some tender, some poignant, but there will also be those moments that you'll just bust out laughing. But, hopefully, everything will be in good fun here. And, of course, there's a place below for your comments and thoughts as we go along here. So feel free to join me for the ride -- I sure as heck hope I'm doing this right and not making any mistakes.
Thanks for taking your time in reading Case's Column. Hopefully, you'll enjoy being entertained by it as much as I've enjoyed putting these writings together. And thanks for the time you spend in City-Data.com, where it's great to be alive!
Regards,

I-69 Update: Just A Rumor, But Not A Priority Yet
Posted 05-08-2015 at 08:12 AM by case44
Could South Texas see another interstate connection along the planned I-69 route through the Lone Star State? 
Well, it's just a thought now, but this could be considered at some point.
I've got a link to the I-69 Facebook page, and there are mumblings of a potential route through the ports of Corpus Christi. Take a look at this.

If this so much as reaches fruition, a lot of work will need to be done between the Interstate 37 terminus at downtown and the Bay Bridge. We're talking years from now whenever more money can be set aside, but first, the powers that be have to see if it can be done.

Corpus with 3 interstates? Doesn't seem very far-fetched. I'm very curious about that bridge project. Isn't Whataburger Field right next to the current one? Where will they route the new bridge?Posted 05-15-2015 at 03:58 PM by malfunction

If you go to this PDF link http://ftpcontent6.worldnow.com/kris...030%202015.pdf ,
then you'll see more detail about where the bridge will go. It will be a point west of the current bridge. The pics in the PDF will show a perspective from Whataburger Field, and it will now be in the other direction.Posted 05-17-2015 at 03:27 PM by case44
