The never-ending issue of not being able to create galleries in the order that I would like. Bummer.


For this trip, I drove to Durham on I64 to Richmond, I95 to Petersburg and then I85 to Durham. I broke my rule of driving blue highways. But I redeemed myself on the way back driving US 15 most of the way. Over the past few years, I've developed a "correction factor" for the Google Maps estimated drive time. If I multiple the estimated drive time by 1.3 I get in the ballpark of how long the drive will really take me. Even that's not accurate if there are photo opportunities along the way.
