Left at sunrise this morning. No problems through Baton Rouge. That wasn't the case in Houston. Had to take a detour around I-10 in Baytown due to the barge hitting the bridge last week. All overweight vehicles must take that detour. It will be a while before that is fixed. Then when I got to Houston they had shut down I-610 at I-45. What a mess!!!!!! The first map below is a photo of my permit route. The second map is the route I took because of I-610 being closed.
Took I-45 back up to I-10. Then west to Loop 6, and then south to I-69 to get back to my permit route.

Most of all that was bumper to bumper. It took a couple hours to get past all that. The last part on Loop 6 going south from I-10 to I-69 in Sugar Land was traffic light after traffic light all the way down. I got at least 3/4 of them red. Some of them I had to stop for twice. UGGGG!!!!!! Very aggravating!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally made it through all that mess and continued on down toward Corpus Cristi. Stopped for the rest of the weekend at a new travel center in Refugio, Texas. Nice place.
