Thought I'd pick the brains of the easterners or anyone who has traveled
"Up East".

So, we have this little trip coming up from Wisconsin to Newfoundland for
the Targa.  We'll take I-90 all the way to Albany.

The question is:  What's the best way to I-95?
We need the quickest route eastbound as we have an appointment with the
ferry out of Sydney.  Our present options are:

1. I-90 to Worchester MA to 290 and then 495 or,

2. Hwy 7 out of Schenectady NY to Bennington VT, Hwy 9 to Concord NH, and
Hwy 4 to Portsmouth NH and I-95.

On the way back we can wind (great LBC roads!) our way on Hwy 2 from
Bangor to I-91 to Lebanon and cut over to Rutland, Glen Falls, and Albany.

We will have an RV pulling an enclosed trailer and a Ford Escape.  Any of
those roads too steep or twisty for the RV and trailer?

Any ideas are gratefully received. Beauty, eh?

We're leaving S.E. Wisconsin on the 3 or 4.Sept. so we'll probably run
amuck of some leaf-peepers.  Maybe a few Bugatti's on tour.  We haul out
the '53 Studebaker and give them what for!  However, our main men Ron
Soave and Jeff Porasik, aka, the drivers, are working stiffs and will be
flying home.  I may take my time as there are a lot of trout streams on
the way home!

TIA!
