8 miles to the DOT yard and back. My last job was 160 miles round trip. Gas was around $2 a gallon then, glad I switched, I’d be losing money going to work there now.

When I go to camp on my northern trapline,from home it is 140 km return trip.
When I go to my camp on the close line it is 26 km return trip..
The farthest nuisance beaver work I do would be 270 km return trip.

On standby every other week so I have the company truck. Only 3 miles to the work center so 6 miles round trip when/if I park it at the work center.

One world order, I don't think so. lol.

140 km = 86.9 mi.
26 km = 16.15 mi.
270 km = 167.7 mi.

Big question is will Canadian quarters work in a U.S. vending machine?

Before I retired I walked about 40 yds to my shop. Still farming a little and can drive for miles and never get out of 40 acres.

68 miles. Once the snow closes my normal route in the winter, it becomes 90 miles round trip.
