    Hi Nancy,

    Turns out, according to Google Maps, I'd be traveling up to Rochester via Pittsburgh. So I'd drive to Pittsburgh the first day (or thereabouts depending
    on how I am feeling) which is about an eight hour drive then the rest of the way--about 4.5 hours through Erie and Buffalo--up to your neck of the woods. 702 miles according to GM.

    Later,
    Sean

    That sounds like one of the routes my brother uses, coming up from
    Bristol... that way avoids the mess that I81 can be... :)

    It's the identical route I'd take. I just have to cut up to I-81 via TN
    Route 75. I live two miles from the southern terminus of 75. I drive
    that northeasterly up to the Tri-Cities Airport, taking Route 357 about
    two miles up to I-81. From there, it's I-81 up to I-77 to Pittsburgh,
    IIRC. Don't remember the rest right now.

    In any case, I'm hoping to make it next year, car accidents be damned.
    :D

    I'd have to check with Rob what he actually does... I-77 is a
    possibility, for at least part of the way... the map shows me that it
    goes to Cleveland, though, so you'd need to switch to I-79 for
    Pittsburgh... I think he has friends in the Pgh area that he can stay
    with...

    In any case, I'm hoping to make it next year, car accidents be damned.
    :D

    Hopefully finally the stars will align.... (G)
