Here's my meet group photo, with part of the u/c I-840 extension in the background:



From left to right: Oscar, Chris (?), Mark, Brian, Steve (in front of Brian), A.J., Collin (meet host), Cody.

I especially enjoyed taking Bryan Blvd. and Benjamin Pkwy. into downtown Greensboro, which I had managed to miss (except the part of Bryan Blvd. absorbed into I-73) on previous visits to Greensboro.

The day before the meet, I took a peek at the construction of the new I-885 in Durham. On Saturday before and after the meet, I went off the Interstates north of Greensboro, largely on NC 87 and NC 89 (clinching the latter) between Burlington and Mt. Airy. I wound up making a last-minute hotel reservation in Mt. Airy, instead of trying to do all of the six-hour drive back home on Saturday evening. I got back home Sunday evening.

The US 64 Asheboro Bypass completion date is now sometime in December 2020.

However, I'll need to go there in December (or whenever the bypass is fully opened to traffic), to re-clinch US 64 after having clinched the route from end to end as one of my projects this summer.

It opened yesterday, if you're still interested.

Wish I could have been a part of this one. Greensboro has a lot going on for a city it's size.
