Left NJ about 12:30 a.m. Monday. Hardly a car on the road the entire trip. Made it up to Newport, VT near the Canadian border in NE Vermont in just over 6 hours. Lots of time to kill prior to event but it was a party atmosphere, tailgating, campers.
Trip home was a horror show. Better than 12 hours in total and 91 south in Vermont was a near parking Was like a badly executed hurricane evacuation. Eventually cut over to I87 near Troy/Albany and continued south from there.
Well worth the trip.
