Notes

Construction all over this trip. I 275 under rebuild from I 94 to I 96 in western Detroit suburbs. I 94 is detoured in downtown Detroit onto I 75 and I 96.

On a construction zone on US 24 (Telegraph Road) south of US 20 in Dearborn, I saw an MI 24 shield, instead of the correct US 25 shield. 

We visited to famous Y bridge on US 40 in Zanesville. We went up to Y Bridge Overlook park which has views of the bridge and downtown Zanesville.
