Tail Lights

I just came home from visiting my parents in Brooklyn. I was there overnight due to a medical reason which I will explain on my next blog. I am just too tired tonight. When I went to get onto the Belt Parkway, there was a backup for 1/2 mile just at the entrance ramp. I made a U turn and look local streets one exit further, but as I entered the parkway all I saw was a sea of red tail lights. Nothing is more frustrating. I sat at a standstill for 75 minutes, just to go almost one mile. The road began to move, but I still do not know what backed it up. Boy, am I glad to be home.
