The trip — Part three: Toledo
Posted by dextr0us on June 3rd, 2007 filed in .etc, .trav
Toledo was a pretty good drive for the most part. No unholy weather events, nor crazy traffic, just one annoyance that would persist the rest of the journey: Toll roads. The Ohio Turnpike isn’t any nicer than any road in Utah that is free, nor do I get anything super special out of driving on it. It’s a public road, and it bugs me that I had to drop some coin just to drive on it.
Tunnels / Bridges make sense, because i’m pretty sure there’s some unexpected upkeep not associated with traditional interstates, but toll roads in general seem annoying.
I stayed at the Days Inn there, spending a little extra coin to get a much better room. Got up and headed for NY the next day. Fun!!!
(PS I’ll be posting a milage / money recap of the journey later today, after I finish my trip posts.)
