Incidentally, Frodo would be wise, when he stops at those inns, to double-check his route. I had a friend come to visit a few weeks ago, and I sent him directions. They were a bit different than the MapQuest directions, so he shared his version with me. I noticed that MapQuest's version was a bit more complicated, but it worked, except it had left out several steps. It had "Take rte X for 2 miles and turn left on E. Ave" when, in fact, it should be "Take rte X for 2 miles, get off at 8th Ave, turn left onto 8th, go half a mile, *then* turn left onto E. Ave". We've used MapQuest before, but now I'm really leery of it, having seen that.
*laughs* Oh, Mapquest.com. I'm sure it would somehow manage to send Frodo in a gigantic circle that would ultimately have him end up in the ocean. Don't even get me started about mapquest... *mutters under breath about lousy directions*
By the way. I'm Annie. I found your LJ from Cassie's VSD about you, and find your journal interesting. Hope you don't mind -- what can I say, I'm just a stalker. ^_^
