Last to last weekend we went for a drive on Merritt Parkway. You can ask, “How does that matter to me?” 
Keep going, you may find the answer….
Well, its a scenic drive which proudly enjoys the enlisting in “America’s Most Scenic Drives” published by Life Books (Time Inc.). This book has pretty good details of 40 most beautiful highways and byways.
Why I am posting it here? Because, if you come to tri-state area (NY-NJ-CT) some time, you can include this drive in your itinerary. We loved this and so will you (hopefully).
As per the book mentioned earlier: “Those in hurry choose to boom along I-95 highway and other take Route 84. But the poets always opt for the Merritt Parkway. … … Built in the 1930s and 37.5 miles long, the Merritt – one of the few American roads listed on the National Register of Historic Places – is a classic, and ever will be.”
