David-
Here are a couple of suggestions:
A) 395 - Northern Route
1. 395N to 90W
2. 90W to 84SW to Hartford
3. 84W across CT & NY to PA
4. 84W in PA to T with 380 near Scranton
5. 380S to 80W
6. 80W across PA to Youngstown, OH
7. In Youngstown, pick up 76W to Akron
This will be approx 580mi from start.
**Stop for night**
8. From Akron, take 76W to 71SW to Columbus
9. In Columbus, take 270SW around city to 70W
10. 70W into Indiana
11. 70W to Indianapolis
12. 65N out of Indy to Lafayette.
13. Exit 172 off 65N (Left onto IN-26 to hotel)

B) 395 - Southern Route
1. 395S to 95W
2. 95W to Milford, CT
3. Exit 38 off 95 to 15 (Merritt Pkwy)W
4. Merritt-W to NY and Rt 287
5. 287N across Tappan Zee BR
6. Continue on 287/87 to exit 15
7. 287SW in NJ to 80W
8. 80W across NJ into PA
9. After passing 380 junction, follow steps
6-13 above.

My Tentative plan leans toward Route B and I would leave
here Thurs 7/18 in the AM to arr Lafayette on Fri 7/19.
