One of the great thing of the US road system, I don't have to go through the road block, I can find an alternate route and go around it. Only in few cases, such as the far northern part of Michigan on across over to Washington, and most of the other western states once you get beyond Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa. There alternative route may add a few hundred miles easily. Where everything in the east and along the Pacific West Coast most work alternative route are just annoyance waiting for the kids to ask how much longer it going to be or if we are there yet.
