I-88 is all open now so that should be no problem.

I will be at the rest area. Taking a half day.

Suresh and Romeo..
If you want, we can meet at my place or I can meet you on the road somewhere along the way since we're all going in the same direction

Romeo - since it's my first time on this route, will let you choose which one works best. I'm good with either of Mike's options.

Ok so Suresh and I can meet at 12:30 at stop and shop then hit the road at 12:45

Mike we can meet you on the way I forgot exactly what exit your off of and if it is close to a park and ride or not… Let us know and we can either meet you off an exit. If you give me the exit we can figure out approximate time we will be there, if i remember correctly we would be near you around half hour after we hit the road.

Im in

Romeo and Suresh,
Here's the easier plan...
Get off at exit 48e take a right at the end of the ramp and then an immediate right at the next light. Go straight and it should lead you into the mall parking lot near Macy's. Mike is riding with me and we'll be there a little after 1p so that, if you're there early, we can get to the next meeting stop early. If not, that should still get us to the main meeting location by 2p.

See you then

Ok Surish, we can meet at stop and shop and hit the road as soon as we meet up or we can just meet where mike noted. I have listed the directions to mikes meeting spot as item B. Your choice i can do either

Stop & Shop works for me. I'll be there at 12.30.
