While You Were Sleeping was a 1995 romantic comedy, featuring Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman. This photo shows a scene of what was happening on North Battleground Avenue last night, likely, while you were sleeping. Road crews worked through the night as part of the multi-million dollar highway project taking place on Highway 220, or North Battleground. Fortunately, the police were on the scene making sure that traffic made it through the intersection smoothly. It will be interesting to see how the intersection looks today. We wonder if that giant mound of dirt/sand that is beside the road is still there. Whether you are a day or night sleeper, it is interesting to think about what is going on in the community while you are resting.
Between the widening of Horse Pen Creek Road, The Urban Loop (formerly known as Painter Boulevard), and the widening of 220 and at the rate property has and is being acquired. We probably won't recognize the area a few years from now. Hopefully, the empty drug store, partially visible below the green traffic lights, will be replaced by another store. As for the current construction, it looks eerily attractive in the still of the night. The site would make an interesting photo shoot for someone who is in the position to stay up all night. The lighting, ranging from green to blue to purple to white is very attractive.
Yes, it's exciting to get construction pictures, especially at night. The picture has everything--working people, colored lights, action, mystery.

My mother used to love this movie. And I am watching this with her. I don't know, but he enjoyed it. Maybe now, I can appreciate it.
