So we're driving north on the now infamous 35W to Bloomington, a route we seldom take, to get the kids to basketball camp this morning. I take the 90th Street exit and Benjamin, who is going into 2nd grade, and apparently knows all of the best routes around the metro says, "Mom, why aren't you taking the 82nd St. exit?"
"Because basketball camp is on 84th Street, so we would be going too far north, and have to turn back south. And besides, there are fewer lights on 90th Street, and the speed limit is higher (which is significant because we are not exactly early)," I reply. "Any other questions?"
"Uh, no, I guess not."
It's good that a couple of those logical genes came from his mom. I'll be needing them.
