Beautiful time of year for DW and me to be in Newport RI for 2 weeks.
Came up I95, bypassed NYC by taking Jersy turnpike to Tappen Zee Bridge ($5 toll), pretty much smooth sailing. But....didn't bypass DC and Baltimore...BIG mistake.
Coming back next week, we will be taking the total bypass. DW is looking forward to a scenic drive in the Shenandoah Valley and a stop at the Shenandoah Caverns (never been). Then from 81 to 64 to get back on I-95 S.
Should be a good route and we are looking forward to it.
I would also be interested in hearing from travelers who have already tried it.
