Need it for an experiment i'am conducting with Streets and Trips. I want to see how accurate my trip planning skills are with. I'am about to start with a major carrier and i wanted to get a real world start on things in terms of trip planning.
I’m really not trying to be smart, but really, just open your map. Point A is where you start from, and point B is where you will end up. It’s not hard. Start out with the US map page in the front of your map, then use the individual state pages when needed. I don’t know how I ever made it across the country without a computer or any mapping programs all these years, 30 to be exact….lol Don’t make it any harder than it is!!!
I used to take my kids 1 at a time in the summers, and they would always want to tell me how we should go to where ever we went, and 9 out of 10 times they were right on the mark. They did this at the age of around 5, yes they could read a map!!!!...lol and so should YOU!!!
PS: dont forget your math, that will answer some of your questions!
