I am a SD fulltimer from NJ. Lots of good route suggestions already. Do you have an EZ Pass? If not, get one. It makes getting through toll booth lanes much easier - otherwise you are hunting for a CASH lane and it is never easy to get to it and it has a long line. I got my I Pass (EZ Pass) from IL - go to their website - very easy to fill out application and you will receive a transponder that you can transfer from mh to toad. Trust me, it you don't have one and you plan to do any northeast driving - you will be so glad you have it.
you can overnight at the CT Welcome Center near Danbury on I 84
