During the time she has been making that commute two huge casinos were 
built and a third given a significant expansion.  The indians refuse to 
improve the roads, leaving that to that to kiss up politicians like 
grupenazi to extract from the tax payers.  The road is a narrow two lane 
with and increasing load of truck construction traffic and more houses are 
being built every day. The result is that an easy half hour commute is 
stretched to a minimum of 45 minutes and often an hour.
