Transcript: How Far to Wells Road?

BIANCA: wait a minute. I can use the odometer. It keeps track of the miles I’m driving.

The odometer reads 126. If I add that to the distance I need to drive to get to Wells Road then the odometer reading will indicate where to turn.

So when the odometer says 158, I should be at the turnoff for Wells Road.Great!!!

I love these chips, but they’re so salty. I need a drink.

Ahh, I needed that.

Oh no. I need to find a rest stop. Now.

I’ve still got 10 miles to the wells road turnoff. I hate to waste more time, but I really have no choice.

Oh, no!

I’m not supposed to be in Long Island! What happened?

At Stein Street and Central Ave the odometer read 126. The directions said to go 3.2 more miles. I made a mistake! I added 32 miles to 126 and got 158 miles.

Instead, I should have added three and two tenths miles to 126. That equals 129 and two tenths.

Geraldine, I’m afraid I won’t get there in time to make the concert. At the visitor’s center, the one with no public restroom when you need one -- in Valley Stream, Long Island.

Really? A shortcut? Cool!

India.Arie, here I come!

As soon as I find a restroom.
