I'm from the midwest, but have to travel Long Island quite a few times a year for work and it's difficult to explain to friends and family back home just how large of an Island this is...sometimes it can be a pain to simply travel 5 miles, especially during tourist season. I headed back there tomorrow...but am cheating and taking the Cross Sound Ferry from CT!...so much less stressful!
One of my favorite roads is the long island expressway interstate 495.
This is my favorite video by you!
@drumsanddrumming the population of long island is approx. 7.5 million, with 2.8 million of those living in nassau/suffolk counties.
I love you exit 73 on I 495

The long island expressway
@roadwaywiz and there are several millions living on Long Island? Crowdy?
@roadwaywiz amazing. on that small island?
I remember going to Splish Splash using this expressway.
@roadwaywiz does that include the city of New York?
how long is it? 150 miles?
Nope! Just 71!
Do you think it's possible that they might one day build Exits 74 through 77 in the very near future? I mean how bad can four more exits be?
Actually I hope they don't ruin all the natural rural beauty around Riverhead by extending it into the place.
Long island
@drumsanddrumming only 71 ;)
