Historic U.S. Route 20 runs between Boston and Newport, Oregon.
On Thursday, Massachusetts highway officials installed a mileage sign on the eastern end of the road in Boston’s Kenmore Square. It informs motorists that Newport, Oregon, is a mere 3,365 miles away on Route 20 westbound.
A similar sign went up in Newport marking the same distance to Boston.
At a Boston ceremony, Massachusetts Highway Administrator Thomas Tinlin says, “There are many things that divide our country, but Route 20 is one thing that connects us.”
The road passes through 12 states between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
One of the things that divide the country is selfishness, and not knowing that its ok to loose sometimes. By continuously feeding this “divided” concept, it only nourishes the trophy deserving idea. Stick to highways buddy! (Or take an exit to Canada)
