Clinched all the current 3dis in Oklahoma and St. Louis area.  Wish I-240 had been signed along Airport Road, though...

Finished my clinches of both ND 13 and ND 11 yesterday.

Rothman

Heh.  Checked to see if I by happenstance clinched all of NY 114 yesterday and I somehow missed the section between St. Mary's Road and Thomas Ave on Shelter Island.

I don't keep track of non-Interstate routes, but couldn't help to consider the possibility.

I call that an "asterisk". I don't say I didn't clinch it, but I reclinch it if I'm in the neighborhood, and remove the asterisk. The only asterisk I've got right now is the new routing of CA-41 and CA-46 in Cholame, which is currently a work in progress. I'll probably not go there until the final routing is finished.

That's a perfect illustrative example for why I don't keep hard data on what I've driven.  That's just too much information to remember and track for such a minor alignment shift.

Well the minor shift isn't something that appears in the hard data that I keep, that's just something I'd be aware of even if I didn't log stuff. Nothing's changing in my TravelMapping .list file.

I've kept GPS logs for almost 20 years, and manually drawn maps in Microsoft Streets & Trips for five years before that. I do it on any major trip, any minor trip that takes me somewhere new (not counting mere streets), or any trip on which I may take pictures. When I found TM, I spent a bunch of time transcribing logs, but I find the combination of the logs and the TM data very useful in planning trips. I admit it has given me some incentive to chase down stupid little missing bits of road here and there, but I try not to care about those too much, and concentrate on major clinches, preferably of the most scenic roads.

That's the rub, I don't have a TM map and starting one seems like a burden I just don't have the motivation for.  More so given that it is meant for mostly numbered highways.  I could in theory just get a really good road map for California or other affected states and use highlighters for what I've driven.  Even then, who is going to see something like that besides me?

Yes, it might be pointless to start now, given the huge number of interesting roads you've traveled that you haven't logged in the past. I wouldn't have used TM if I didn't have some sort of trip logs going back to 1991, the early ones being a highlighted AAA Atlas combined with credit card statements showing restaurants, hotels and gas purchases. But I find it fun.
