Hi Julia:
thanks for the welcome. but you folks north of the river are in a
foreign land aren't you. I know when I was growing up in Northern
Virginia I thought that it took a passport to go to Maryland.
something like that for Pflugerville for us Bubaland folk.
I sympathize with you on SH130. We need the road but not as a toll
road. I participated in Envision Austin's growth planning exercises
two years ago and most of the groups wanted growth to move to the
East to protect water shed etc. But tolling the road will slow that
down, I think.

Dan and I live in opposite ends of Houston and Julia is in Austin.
There are several former Texas posters here and may still be a few
current members still hanging around.
Shouldn't have hit send so soon. :)
I'm not IN Austin, I'm NEAR Austin. If anyone in Austin asks, and
I tell them what city it is whose ETJ I live in and get a blank
look, I just say "Northeast of Pflugerville" which is about right
for where my house is, anyway. I'm EAST of the SH 130 currently
under construction (and whose construction is making it take longer
to GET anywhere but up to town, and we don't go up to town except
to go to the school and get pizza, there's an awesome pizza place
on US 79 on that little stretch where it's concurrent with FM
1660), but once the highway network is in place, all it's going to
take to get anywhere is toll money and the ability to do it using
MoPac instead of I-35 (but you don't want to take I-35 anyway,
right?).
Blathering. Right. I'll shut up for a few more minutes....
