Boston Traffic, Signs, and Maps Defy Navigation in Humorous Travelogue
In a humorous Gazette travel column, Mike Deupree roams Boston during a wedding trip. He laments sparse helpful signs, confusing interchanges, and misdirected directions from rental and hotel maps as he navigates downtown and suburbs. He jokes about Boston’s notorious driving, noting the city’s tricky signage and ironic road layouts. The piece ends with a quip about the Kingston Trio reference and a playful revelation about a sandwich and a nickel on the train.
