I wouldn't be able to see otherwise either,
but I'm thinking going forward. Many of my
friends are my age and older, and sometimes
I wonder about their future mobility, too.

I hear you... The day does come when one decides it's time to hang up
the keys.... My Aunt Sylvia, at 89, decided earlier this year than the
pain meds she needs to take were fuzzing her mind just a bit too much,
so now she has friends and family take her everywhere....

I'm afraid that Lilli is getting to that condition,
but possibly with cataract surgery things might improve.

Perhaps you needed a more updated AAA map... ;)

We just followed the dotted line that said
I-287 under construction.

[chuckle] I've done that before, too... ;)

The dotted lines were not an entirely accurate
representation of what was actually to come,
but that was kind of irrelevant.

After all, once on the now-exisiting road one just follows the road
until either it falls away again, or gets to the exit you are hoping
for... ;) SOW, sorta... work progresses on what is obviously the Sunbury/Selinsgrove bypass on Rt15... and when I drove through on the
way home, it appears that it might also end up being a Lewisburg bypass
as well... :)

Does it have signs designating it as the future I-99, as
we've seen near Williamsport and I believe State College?

Certainly not the level of confidence many
people invest in it. Google Maps, at least the
mobile version accessible on my friend Bonnie's
phone, was powdered by TomTom, an outfit I don't
have the highest opinion of.

And your recent use did nothing to lift that opinion.... :)

Nothing. And in Soldotna we had it try to route us
on nonexistent streets again; lucjily Bob the driver
realized this and merely shouted at the computer,
something that seems to have become a common pastime
among my friends.

Hard to say... But I guess that would make it quite unlikely he'd
remember or recognize you... :)

It's unclear how and whether people from my
past remember me, and it's not that great a
deal.

What matters most is if the people of your present remember you, after all.... ;)

Truth.

One can hope. It works wonders for most... in Daddy's case, it just
revealed more problems inside the eye... Mommy was back to driving
within a week...

There are sections of Rt 15, at least starting at the PA north border,
maybe even a little before that in NYS from Painted Post, that do have
that future I-99 signage... I didn't see anything in the Lewisburg to Selinsgrove section, but then that is south of Williamsport, and I-99
leaves Rt 15 in WIlliamsport to take over Rt 220 to State College...

Certainly not the level of confidence many
people invest in it. Google Maps, at least the

It's better than blind faith leading one totally astray... ;)
