Let us say that you wanted to go from Rte 116 to Rte 112 and you are at a crossroad called Williamsburg Road. You can go up 116 to the center and then meet up with 112, or go this way to meet up with 112. It could avoid traffic, if any or it may slow you down, depending on the situation.
Backroads! This way makes a nice short cut, you know how many deer that I have seen in the fields you may be looking at? Bring your own pen please.
