Here I talked about my good fortune with my move to NY. Now I’m starting to get ready for my drive up there. I’d like to meet a couple Dopers along the way, if time and circumstances permit. My general plan (if I can get the date of the u-Haul pushed back a day so I can load it up Monday night and leave early Tuesday) is to leave around 6 or 7 Tuesday morning and try to make NC by nightfall. Then I’ll head from there to MD to see Falcon, then on from MD to NY. I’ll be taking I-95 up, for the most part (except for the portion in FL where I’ll be taking I-75 and then I-10 over to I-95)
So, who wants to try to get together along the way? I’m trying to build a little time in this specifically for this reason!
Which would put you in my neck of the woods about 10 AM Tuesday morning, right?
Well, you can drive by the school, honk so I know you’re there (i’ll be teaching class – 12 more days left, yes!), and then flip my principal off (like I know you’ve always wanted to do).
Otherwise, I guess I’ll see you on March 23, 2002.
Let’s see that would put you in my area, Exit 4 of the NJ Turnpike around noon on Thursday. Which is where it would be best to meet you since detouring into Philly would be quite a bit out of your way and confusing besides. THe trick will be me getting there from here noon on Thursday. I must think this out. If I don’t see ya, safe trip.
