Hi De!

Just got back from a check up wwith my surgeon on the hip! Its doing good! Some type of muscle group is still weak and I don't remember which name it was but more walking on it should help strengthen it.. Doc was happy with the outcome and assured me we were kicking the can down the road till next year or longer if the joint injections keep helping before getting my right knee replaced.. That was good news to me too. That Euflexxa 3 shot injection series has really filled some space inside the knee so I am not bone on bone right now.. As long as that keeps working we are good to go..

Anyway, US highway 50.. That is not far from my house. Maybe 15 miles max.. It goes eastward from Indiana into Ohio and goes eastward toward the far east side where it bends south into west virginia. I have driven that many times.

I pick it up in the town of Owensville in Brown county and follow it thru city of Hillsboro all the way across the state over to Athens, Ohio the home town of Joe Burrow..

Its a small world! Connected by highways.... Very Happy Thumbs Up

Re: “which one is the LONGEST? Looks like I-80 to me.”Conceptually, the two maps are cool. But they're far from accurate. Whoever drew them took considerable artistic license.

Look at highway 50 on the maps below. 50 is drawn to be the southernmost of the three highways that leave San Francisco. The map shows it running southeast from San Francisco, through Yosemite and well toward Vegas. In reality, 50 heads slightly northeast, through Sacramento and Tahoe. It would be the middle of the three San Francisco highways... what they're calling 60.

But then there's 60. I lived near there for 30 years and I'm completely unfamiliar with it! Maybe I drove part of 60 on my trip last year; I don't know. In any case, 60 actually ends in southwest Arizona. It doesn't go to California at all.

So, like I said, it's conceptual. I wouldn't use it to draw any conclusions as to which highway is longest - though 80, which I've seen in Pennsylvania, would get my vote.
