Caravan from CT To Bucks County Aug 3

Long ride, i know. But thought I'd let you know I'd be leaving the danbury fair mall. sometime like 8am. We could even meet people on the way. Gosh! What do you think?

update:

we are leaving at 6;30 am. (8 am. HA! never could happen.)

Here's our route as it stands:

84-684-sawmill-henryhudson-gwbridge-95/NJT-bux county directions.

GMINI03 and I are picking up Uptick 7:00 at exit 16 on the sawmill and dkstone 7:30 at the first service area on the NJT. Still waiting on koolmini.

We will be using channel 7.0 on our 2-ways.

And weather tomorrow calls for sunny with isolated thundershowers. A definite improvement. I predict a sunny drive down.

Join us.

Oh yahoooooooooooo!

It's gonna have to be early if we want to enjoy breakfast with Kim. I'd say 6:30? That's based on mapquest's three hours. But if we take the tappanzee instead of the GW, we might make much better time. Don't know but the GW in the morning might just be ok. Plus the saw mill makes a pleasant wake-up. I think we could do it in 2 1/2 if we really wanted to sleep in another half hour.

Woo hooo! I love making last minute plans!

The route? So far it looks like 684 to sawmill to henryhudson to GW Bridge.

But could do 87 to Tapanzee, no big diff.

I think we're looking at 6:30 for a leisurely pace down.

PS but you could say 7 and we could squeeze it

The spot is Dead Front o' Filenes. Center entrance, the one that juts all the way out. Sunday Morning 6:30am, there's not gonna be much of a doubt where either of us is.



Congrats on all yer mods. Maybe a 2-way next aye?
