Learn to READ maps...

...then all you'll have to do is print out a GENERAL map of where you're going and pick your OWN path.

I HATE Google maps...will NOT use them! I use Yahoo maps...not much better, but a bit easier to decipher using the method I stated above.

If I am going long distance I print out the long distance map and then a second map zoomed in to a closer view. NO PROBLEMS!...since I've already learned to read a "regular" road Atlas YEARS ago;)
