Left Marietta at 2pm for round trip to Gaffney...


Nov 25, 2020, 6:37 AM

yesterday. Got back at home at 10:30. lol they had 85 south down to one lane at bridge over Hartwell into Ga to pave the thing starting at 7pm last night. #### traffic was backed up to Anderson almost.

I've gotten to where I just check Google maps traffic before


Nov 25, 2020, 6:43 AM

Driving. Check when I leave, when approaching destination city, then when starting return trip, then when approaching Columbia.

Yeah, but I bet you wouldn't know about paving starting...


Nov 25, 2020, 6:49 AM

at 7pm, until 7pm. I would hope last night was the last night this week they will be doing that. Also, there's no other way into GA. lol

That's not true.

You could have flown from Atlanta into Gaffney International, you know.

I love taking the Johnson Ferry and the Powers Ferry...


Nov 25, 2020, 9:45 AM

to get over the Hooch.

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpgringofhonor-beeksteak-110.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I'd prefer a flying car to get over Spaghetti junction.***

You just gotta t-mail Beng and ask him to ask his

daughter or daughter in law or whoever it was that we blame for all the traffic problems going forward

Just look at it as more quality time with the kid.

That's not true.

Can go either through Toccoa or Hartwell way

There are other roads besides interstates

Nothin' left to do but smile, smile, smile!!!!


Which would have taken even longer


Nov 25, 2020, 2:24 PM

;) You sure do like to argue with me lately. Chicken wings, roads out of SC, etc. lol

Why not just use waze? It's pulling from the exact same

crowdsourced databases, but it's helping you real-time instead of checking the maps grandpa-style.

yeah, I knew about that paving


Nov 25, 2020, 10:04 AM

Was fine going up.


Nov 25, 2020, 10:08 AM

Normally I like to get the trip done earlier in the day.

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpgringofhonor-beeksteak-110.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

They have been working on some portion of I-85 from


Nov 25, 2020, 10:30 AM [ in reply to yeah, I knew about that paving ]

Spartanburg to teh Ga line since at least 1986. I've been to Greenville or Clemson every year since then, and i can't remember ONE time there wasn't construction going on somewhere.

I've never seen any road that needs that much work, for such a long period of time. People have started their careers working on that road, and retired doing the same exact thing, in the same place.

Won't end anytime soon. Widening to six lanes from Spartanburg to the N.C. Line to commence before long.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Nah, wouldn't have saved any time.***

Marietta to Gaffney...


Nov 25, 2020, 2:58 PM

Why would you not take US 276 to SC 11? Seems going over Hartwell at the state line is way out of the way.
