I See the Light; Or, Out of the Darkness I have arisen Commercial

Last night I had a bit of insomnia. I suppose it was from all the excitement of the weekend, with the opening of Hwy 14, the food and fun at Franklin Park and the good ole rock and roll at the VFW Club. Anyway, it was 2am. I decided to go out for a walk and read.....

Yes, READ. One might think that it is hard to read in the dark, but not here in Evansville. If you just walk from East Main up Union, the lights just keep getting brighter. It is truly inspirational. Uplifting.

Some might think it unfair that most of East Main is still in darkness. Unfair that all the grant money ran out before all of East Main could be lighted. Relax. It will be ok. It is so bright on Union that a guy might not be able to sleep with all that light streaming into his home. And besides, not everybody wants to go outside to read in the middle of the night like those wild and crazy folks on Union.
