Ted Williams tunnel

I took my 1st ever trip through the tunnel late today.
I had to go to Winthrop to pick up something, so I followed the directions I got from mapquest and had to got east on rt 90 (Ted Williams tunnel) to get there.
The ride to there was not bad.
On the return trip I had to go through the toll booth and I figured it would be 75cents or a buck, not big deal.
The guy in the booth tells me "That will be $4:50 !!!
I said "Are you %$%$%$%$ting me !!!
He said "no $4:50
I asked him if I got a cup of coffee or lunch with that !!!

LETS GO BRANDON

Compared to what we used to go through to get to Logan, 3 bucks is a bargain.

Marvels of engineering those tunnels

Where else but Massachusetts would engineers design a tunnel that actually rises and falls with the tide. Ronnie just think of it as a day at the beach and thats the beach parking lot fee.
