Longitude and Latitude




I must admit that I do like signs like these. These photos were taken at mile marker 78 on I-72 in Illinois. When I saw the brown marker sign I decided to go back and photo it. It was about a 10 mile turn around and I was glad to do it. Then, the Garmin confirmed. I am not sure what it means to be 1/4 way west around the world, but there it was.

Seems to me that being a quarter way around the world really depends where you started... People from Illinois, I would think, are more like zero percent of the way around the world at that spot while people from Guam are probably more like 2/3 of the way east if they're standing there...

Good on ya for living through your trip! You're a pain in the ass, but all told we're still better off having you around.
