Summary: <p>Sometimes the show takes you to new places, and sometimes the way to get there <em>is</em> the destination. U.S. Route 9 is historic—for much of the portion in New York State, it's The Albany Post Road. Join <em>Cidiot</em>® for a very personal driving tour from Poughkeepsie to Kinderhook with sites, stops and history along the way. Be sure to see the surviving markers, a system developed by Ben Franklin, including the iconic 100-mile marker in Rhinebeck.</p> <p><strong>Below are some of the places mentioned w/links for more
