Good Luck from Falcon Land.

Steely Dan, what kind of road is Rt 550 out of Athens over to Marietta? I noticed it's more of a straight shot over instead of Rt 50 which seems to dip way south and then come back up.

Thanks.

Haven't traveled 550 but IMO I would go RT50E to Belpre. Its roughly 2 hours anyway you go. I doubt that 550 would cut that much time off the trip and if its 2 lane probably not much at all.

Burg - I'd go RT. 50, it is quicker, unless you like windy, hilly drives through a number of small villages along the way. The eastern leg of Rt. 50 between Barlow and Marietta isn't bad at all, it is that stretch through Bartlett, along Carbon Hill, and through Amesville that is tough. I've driven it all the way from Marietta to Athens, and won't do it again.

Folks who live out Amesville way generally go down to Rt. 50 and then drive across Rt. 50 through Coolville, Belpre, and on up.

Just watch your speed. The troopers will be out. Safe travels!

Okay, thanks. I just happen to see it on Map Quest and it looked like a straight shot, but I'll stick with Rt 50. Hope to see you at halftime.
