Not long ago, I thought 8+ years without a vacation was going to happen again (or something close to it). Strangely enough, lately, vacations have become far more common, typically about once a year, sometimes even twice a year (once only 40 or so days apart too). In short, I define a vacation as a time span of at least 24 hours being away from home (by home, I mean by home town). A road trip is the same except that it's less than 24 hours. Trips to Bismarck go here since it's only for 12 hours at the most. This series of 10 videos covers almost everything. Be sure to read the video descriptions of each segment (skip this first paragraph since it's always the same) to learn more, especially in the cases I forgot to narrate or for corrections. After Jamestown, it's all freeway, the I94, until the destination is reached where about another 2 extra miles are needed. Once on the freeway, navigation becomes much easier. From my trip in 2008 and a bit later on, I studied how the freeways were designed with careful observation (see the previous segment for the entering of the freeway). Yep, it's not just game mechanics I study, it's many things. The most useful aspect to know is how mile markers relate to exit numbers. If you're heading east (or north), the mile marker numbers increase. If you pass mile marker 58, for example, you'll see exit 58 following, provided an exit exists within that mile (out in the wilderness, it's typically 5 or so miles between exits, sometimes even <b>...</b>
