@Freewayjim Is So Cool!

[@wipandco]

Awesome song.

[@EdgeXXI]

Awesome to the max

[@Freewayjim]

@tarheels Thanks!

Interesting that Dead Man's Merge is in view of a skyscraper with a cross on its front (to I-45) side.

@Cyrus992 -I was there in late June when I filmed Charleston & Jax but got caught in an afternoon T-Storm when I was attempting to film Savannah. Not sure when I'll be back there. Honestly, aside from the bridge (Which I did get in one direction and is on an upcoming vide) Savannah does not do much for me.

Great stuff. When I-45 was constructed, Houston had only 400,000 inhabitants (over 2.3 million today)

[@Freewayjim]

Thanks for watching!

@Bryant5493 -Thanks, one of my all-time faves!

I was driving Gulf Freeway (I-45) south to the Hobby Airport just 48 hours ago while listening to Michael Berry on the 950.

@rickhh1 -Ha! I never noticed that, That merge is ridiculous, especially coming on from US-59 South.

[@bmbsage]

I used to rock Isley brothers...
My parents favorite...
nice video Jim,
Gulf freeway has character.. They should plant more palms on the sides.. :)
Keep'em coming/....

[@Tampa0123456789]

TOWARDS the end there is a strange Y-shape structure Is that a road? Sort of an odd spot to put an extra freeway.

[@damonhynes]

Good choice with the Isleys' music. :-)

[@Bbgunn325]

@Freewayjim I think you've seen worse (or at least just as bad) on that drive up the BQE you took.
