Wow... That would be a Brutal Commute at about Any Time you do it.
Cause the 210 can be Very Bad. And the "5" isn't all the Great of an Alternative many times of the Day.
Glad to hear you are doing a 8.5 Mile one Now.
It was brutal !
On Fridays, I didn't even try to go home...I bounced around at family to spend the night.
