TN9 Hop 4<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

360 miles via VA 234, I-95, VA 123 to a lunch engagement with Carl, my old friend and travel companion from PCL2<\/a>, then VA 123, I-66, I-495 (west of DC), I-270, US 15, PA 581, I-83, I-81, I-78 and US 22 to a refueling stop in Easton PA, then US 22, I-78, I-287 and NY 120 to my destination. Miles since the end of Hop 3: 370. Cumulative route miles: 1,492. Total TN9 miles: 1,525. The 10 extra miles during my stay in Montclair were due to a single trip to see family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 3 days in Montclair were basically family days, with Jett’s sons and grandchild. Wonderful people and always a pleasure to see them. Thank you, Devin and Mary, for the first-class accommodations. And thank you, Zachary, for letting me win the chess match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carl treated me to a sushi lunch before I got back on the road to endure heavy traffic all the way to Connecticut. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We went out to dinner one night but this was mostly “home” time. I did some genealogy research and drove the family to Dulles to catch a flight to Cancun. I also had dinner with Josh, Jett’s other son, and Cristina. A very nice dinner and a relaxing afternoon and evening. Thanks, guys!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beard continues to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
