The Road Less Travelled

Does anyone else miss the good old days when the speed limit on the Frontage Road between Centerville and Farmington was 50 mph?  I don't know what population threshold we crossed that made it necessary to decrease the speed to 40.  But 50 mph is clearly the appropriate speed limit for the Frontage Road.  You just want to avoid the Frontage Road completely when you can't drive at a decent speed.
PS - Yesterday I had my two cutest passengers, Lauren and Elmo.  We were going about a block, so it was vitally important that Elmo be buckled in for the ride!
