I like your attitude. I think I'll try it tonight. :-)

Good point. If I plan for tolls they become minor inconveniences. If
I'm not prepared they are a major PITA!

As I said to Eric, if I were doing this on a regular basis I'd get an
e-pass. But this isn't common.
Maybe I can just put some $1's in my jacket pocket. Weather permitting
I'll be wearing my BroshTex jacket which has good velcro-closure
pockets. The early forecast has me dodging showers and possible
T-storms, but being Florida that can change quickly for the better or
worse.
