Sad that we even have to do so!<br /><br />jenn - I suppose in MN road repair for 6 mo of the year is logical, but in MO it goes on year round unless there is a layer of snow or ice over everything! And it is still awful! Wow, Taos? I had no idea!!<br /><br />caroline - I lived in MO for over 31 years, and I never figured that stuff out! It just didn't make since, and it still doesn't. <br /><br />tl - I agree. The roads there are usually quite good. It does help when they don't have to fight the freeze/thaw and temp extremes. However, that doesn't explain it here. I honestly think they just do a good job here.

They progressively get worse as you go north. I think that FL is easier on the asphalt then the colder climates. Our temps are very moderate where as other parts of the county have to go from the 90's or 100's during the summer to single digits or below. But MO is definitely the worse on maintence in my opinion!

You would think they would be putting a new surface down already. No. I think they are waiting to see how many tires they can damage in the process. I once heard on the radio one winter the DJ joking that there was a pothole so big in downtown KC there was a family of 4 living in it. Where is all our tax money going to??? <br /><br />Have fun on your road trip.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14476059033054104085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-28923103959612530762006-10-24T09:08:00.000-06:002006-10-24T09:08:00.000-06:00I'd say the roads in MN are pretty bad.

Let's just keep building them...don't worry about fixing the ones we already have!<br /><br />I lived in Taos - very briefly in my youth.
