You can circle the drive or get out and walk through all the displays. PERSONAL FAVORITE – Hyco Lake News is now on Facebook! Want to get the latest news on your mobile device or PC?

I recently say this on a sign in Georgia advising against texting while driving. I've spent a couple thousand miles driving up and down I-95 lately and can attest that 9 out of 10 times I see someone swerving, encroaching on my lane or driving erratically, they are fooling with a cell phone. Do what I do and that is let my passenger talk while I drive. If you are alone, wait until that gas or rest stop to call the person or text them back - the world will not end but someone's life may if you are involved in an accident while being Intexticated.
