I go up through DC all the time but here is the trick. Have an EZ pass and time your travel to get in the North bound I-95 HOV lanes BEFORE 11 am while they are still running North. I go straight through DC on 395 to 295,to Baltimore Washington Parkway, to I-695 West to I-83 North to I-81. But from FL avoid it all by taking I-95 to I-26 in SC. Take that to Columbia and pick up I-77 up to I-81 in Wythville, VA to Scranton PA and hit I-84 East. You can pick your route from there to miss NYC, Conn, and all that mess depending on where you are going in Mass.
