Has anyone seen one of these things? This is a portable watchtower of some sort that was brought by the Charlotte PD to the parking lot of the Wal-mart near our house. Why was this portable guard post necessary you ask? Well, I'll tell you - because Charlotte was out of GAS! I'm not sure if you heard about this on the news and just glossed over it - but rest assured it was real and it did affect us. A week ago Monday I waited in line at this Wal-mart from 8:30-10:30 just to fill up. The line for gas continued until yesterday and even still we only have one level of Gas at many of the stations. It has been a weird experience and not one that I can encourage you to ever partake in.
