When this western branch of I-84 was on the drawing board it was designated I-82. But delays and one thing and another ultimately resulted in another route being so named. Thus when the powers that be decided to scuttle the I-80N name they chose I-84, which totally flies in the face of the south to north naming system, for I-82 lies north of I-84.
That's not right.
If you need further explication, look it up.
Yep; I lumber along toward the 85th!

There are several not-rights in the US and Interstate highway systems.
May there be no not-rights on your birthday!
Happy Birthday, David!! I hope you enjoy your day. 84...WOW!
Congrats, Old Timer. At the stage of life we do tend to lumber. I pray that you neither timber nor pine away. Nor should you end up like a beeched whale. May your day be more than oak, may it be plumb full of joy and happiness.
Grace, I appreciate that!
Jim, thank you. The "not-rights" illustrate the fact that the best laid plans. . .
Lin, WOW indeed, and thank you very much.

Who knew? Well, you since you have more facts and trivia stored in your brain than anyone else I know.
So great to talk with you yesterday!
Vee, there is a lot of trivia in there for sure. Trivia is the key word. Always appreciate the time we spend talking with each other.
har har- we used to have an 84 lumber on route 89. That was a head-scratcher to me as a kid. Happy birthday!
