I'm just curious who to see who is traveling the farthest to this event? I am very fortunate to live very close to the range - 3.5 miles. Post your distances (street miles, not as the crow flies) and I will keep the top 10 current in the OP. You can post your home city if you want as well.
To make it easy to find the distance, click
here and replace 'Dallas, TX' in block A with your address.
1. chasfm11 - Northern DFW, TX - 297 mi
2. surprise_i'm_armed - Lewisville, TX - 289 mi
3. The Annoyed Man - Grapevine, TX - 292 mi
4. tomc - Dallas, TX - 291 mi
5. Fosforos - Terrell, TX - 267 mi
6. toddlinder - Midlothian, TX - 256 mi
7. foreman - Leander/Cedarpark, TX - 204.1 mi
8. USA1 - Tomball, TX - 54 mi

14.9 miles for williamkevin and I. Certainly not the longest distance to travel but we are further away than I thought we were.

I didn't consider the possibility of ties.
That puts you both at 1 and 2 - for now.

Ok gwashorn and Purplehood - your in. But we really need some of the DFW folks to chime in and push us local boys off of the list.

I really doubt that 18.35 miles is correct (FM1960 and Champion Forest area).
I drive from home in NW Houston to work (inside the 610 loop) one way 26 miles. Friendswood is further south.
I hate MapQuest.

I uses google maps. Google is skynet and I know the robots know how to get to my house.
