Ah - Memories.
I went to undergrad at Ft. Schuyler under the Throg's Neck Bridge. Spent a lot of time between the Museums and the village. The Taconic, the Sawmill and the Merrit were my favorite roads, but I only had little cars.
With a girl in Albany and little cash, 9 and 9W were also run a whole lot. That is probably still good at least to Albany.
I just went and looked at my charts and I have 3 free ONPs north of Glens Falls Two (yes 2 Walmarts) and a Home Despot. There are also rest areas on the Northway and it looks like there is a new (from my POV) Walmart west of Ti(conderoga). There is a website and an app called RVParky, Free on the web, buy for the phone. There is also a yahoo group where a current ONP/NOP Walmart list is kept up to date.
There are a very few things that I miss about the megopolis of the east coast. One of them is not that girl in Albany (Aubny as the locals say it). I got her to come out here 44 years ago. The flat land is boring, but you can drink the water you sail your boat in here, but the seafood sucks.
Neither of us have any family left back east, so we just don't go that way anymore.
