I always like the 1am time to travel, but tomorrow I will be one of them
because we are not ready or even 1/2 packed. I hope to be at the bridge by 9am head to the National Cemetery to pay my respects to my inlaws then off to Breakfast some place.

There was a terrible roll over accident on 495 Friday Night Paul

That may have caused backups on both sides, the rollover was across the median.Woman Loses Control, Killed In Crash - Boston News Story - WCVB Boston

Bon Jovi concert has 495 N backed up to 140. Every car has women with big hair and tight tops in it.

Trying to get home to Wrentham from my boat late this afternoon.
Came down 128 past Randolph exit bumper to bumper, didn't dare get on 95 south to rt 1 like I always do.
Took rt 24 south all the way down to 495, bumper to bumper once I got near Mansfield exits !
Took forever to get home !

LETS GO BRANDON

"Marvis Gordon, 74, of Sharon, was traveling north on Route 495 when her 2004 Subaru went into the median and came out on the southbound side of the highway in Middleborough."
One more reason why the elderly need to be retested.

Right there with you. Had to get to get home in Franklin earlier today, was terrible. Fortunately I grew up in Mansfield and knew the back roads to get around and to RT. 1. Still took forever.

You live in Wrentham? Man, that's a haul to Green Harbor. Power to you for making that commute at the butt crack of dawn everyday. I've had to get to Plymouth a couple times for 5am and boy is it tough.

I laugh every Sunday. People spend hours backed up on 6, then when they get to Sagamore, instead of taking the bridge and using the new flyover, they exit, and crawl another 4 miles on Sandwich Road into the Bourne Bridge rotary. Meanwhile, Scenic Highway is usually clear into the Belmont Circle rotary with a clean shot onto 25.

Most of the cars have NY or CT plates. I guess mile long crawls are their everyday experience

Saturday--changeover Saturday--is a different story. I have to take the back roads if I want to get to Buzzards Bay.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
