ME I-295 7 8A

That's not a clinch. (I assume you mean from Exit 7 to Exit 8A.)
Clinched, minus I-93 (I'm missing a few miles and my file is incorrect)

Traveled, plus US 13, 44, and 50, and several state routes

I will be in Burlington VT for the eclipse.

True, in the strictest sense. However, CHM did sort of introduce the idea of partial clinches, clinching mileage or segments, if not a whole route itself. :)

MT 47 since you have 70 MPH speed limits in addition easy access to make a high speed escape on your choice of I-90, I-94, and if you're crafty even US 212.

It is a near certainty that some shorter 3dis have been walked by litter pickup patrols, highway construction crews, facility maintenance folks, etc.

Also I-180 in Wyoming is probably walked every day by somebody as it has sidewalks on nearly all of it and a well worn foot path where it doesn't...

I'll have to see if have pictures of the Burma Shave signs that are up on AZ 66.  I know for sure they have them in the back lot of the Hackberry General store, you could say that in effect...you do drive to Burma Shave.

Collectively, which counties have we been to?

I mean, someone could start such a thread, but it seems like a lot of trouble.
Wait, it's all Ohio? Always has been.

Cheater! Five words!

Depended on the rhyme.  Some panels had four words, some had five.
