Traveling out East?
We were going to Maine and down the coast , but a friend of ours just emailed us and said they can't wait till they get home to the Midweast. They said the streets are like alleys, the traffic unbear...

Crowe! Sorry if I offended you, as it was not my intention to single anyone out. I was generalizing from the personal experiences I had, over the years, with "revelers".
I'm young (well, sort of :B) so I'll get over it! I think the short season up here makes us "cut lose" a little more than some other parts of the country. Although, you ain't seen NUTHIN' unless you've been on the Outer Banks on the 4th of July! Many have a bad perception of New Yorkers as well-my experiences in NYC have not been pleasant.
Spent lots of time on the "island". Aunt & Uncle lived in S. Farmingdale for years and my cousins grew up there. Visited the Hamptons but as a kid it all seemed so snobby to me I wasn't a fan. It can be equated to the Kennebunks up here but now I wonder if I could afford it, would I spend so much just to live on the coast.
and invariably had entered a rotary with no foreseeable way out.
I HATES rotaries! Your way of getting off is typical, even for those who drive them regularly.
Agree with you on the "winging it". Some personalities just can't and it causes too much discomfort. Not everything falls into place as planned and when you're driving tons of vehicle that you aren't 100% comfortable with, are tired, need a place to stop and can't find one, it can spell disaster.
Yup there's traffic up here. Plus mountains, beautiful beaches, gorgeous foliage, historical sites, culture, adventure-you name it, we probably have it. Just like those who won't fly, if you don't brave the traffic every once in a while you'll miss out on a whole lot. It goes with the territory. Then, again, if it's going to give you heart failure then maybe you are better off where it's less congested. Each to their own and ditto on the safe and happy travels!
