Coming from DC, this is exit 29A (Busch's Frontage Road -- consider
eating at Busch's Chesapeake Inn, and dinner and a show (currently
Oklahoma!) at the Annapolis Dinner Theater) -- for 7-11, Hardee's and
Denny's, use exit 29B (Cape St.  Claire).  If you miss these, exit 30
is JUST beyond Wendy's (and Angler's) and you can come back in seconds
to businesses on both sides of US 50-301.

Coming from the Bay Bridge, use exit 29 and turn left for Busch's, ADT,
MacD's, Wendy's; go right for 7-11, Hardee's, and Denny's.  (There is
no exit 30 westbound.)

Actually, they are upgrading the highway from the Capital Beltway to the
Bay Bridge to Interstate.  The portion from the beltway almost to US 301
and from just west of Annapolis to the Bridge are done.  They have just
started on the middle part (2-3 years).  Yes, it was a very dangerous
intersection and the new interchange has made getting to the other side
of US 50 a breeze and MUCH safer.  Unfortunately, not being a cloverleaf,
it can be quite confusing to non-locals.

I have no connection with any of the above-mentioned businesses, I just
live about a mile from the new intersection.
