Our GPS tells us that I 95 is closed ahead. Not backed up. CLOSED.
Mind you we are almost in the Bronx, and headed for the GW bridge. And don’t really know any alternate routes at this point. Having grown up there, a big fear of mine for many years is to get lost in the Bronx and end up in a really bad neighborhood. But we figure it out and after a detour, we make it onto the bridge and head home without further incident.

I thanked God that we fared as well as we did. Could have all been much worse.
