Clevelanders sure love their freeways, well, until they get into a traffic jam. And I have a special, not-so-nice place in my heart for I-7I, considering that our family had to be relocated in 1964 so they could put the freeway right through our house.Despite those days when something causes a horrific backup on the freeway, the city is lucky to have such an extensive freeway system.
