Jerry,, it might be 25 mile shorter the other way but it takes quite a bit more time because of the construction and wrecks. Mostly Semi's that have inexperienced drivers and this the have wings on them and not wheels.. Going the way I am now has just 3 traffic lights and is like an interstate. When the traffic is normal, this other way only takes 1 1/2 hrs approx. but last Friday it took 4 hrs. the longer way takes about 1 hr 40 minutes. Thanks for the nice words Angelia.
