Hi.  My girlfriend was looking at a map of Connecticut and realized that
Danbury is west of Monroe.  This would be less ideal because then we'd have to
back-track.  We saw that there's both a Super 8 and a Quality Inn in Waterbury
and it's east of Monroe and it's about the same distance (a little farther)
as to Danbury.  So, I think we're going to go with this.  According to
MapsOnUs.com, Waterbury is 25 miles away from Monroe, so that's 40 minutes,
maybe?

Below, I've included the directions as reported by MapsOnUs.com.  Tell me
if these look reasonable.  (I cut off the top, bottom, and some
intermediate parts because you probably don't care about them and only add
confusion.)

Thanks.
