Laurie and I have been driving to Washington for the past Saturday and 2
Sundays ago. There are no crews working on either day. It seems unlikely they
will be working Saturday, because this is a very busy stretch of highway on the
weekends. We are taking I-44 Saturday morning after we eat breakfast at
Cracker Barrel in Fenton.
By the way, the 4 lane highway 100 is now open from I-44 to Washington MO.
