	DE 299 East at U.S. 13/DE 1 South between Middletown and Odessa. U.S. 13 is actually a mile ahead in Odessa, but heading south on DE 1 for a bit will bypass Odessa and merge with U.S. 13. At least, it did at the time of this picture, as DE 1 has been completed between Smyrna and Odessa. (Photo taken 3/18/03)
