Syracuse NY to Tampa FL

we just went from poughkeepsie to naples--we left on a sunday(no hurry for time) and stayed overnight at cabelas in pa. took 78-81-17-66-95 you come out on 95 below wash and baltimore. we drive a little longer than you, we stayed overnight at south of the border and then at a rest area in ocala,fl. went straight through richmond on the way down but took the west loop around on the way back. it is a little longer than going 95 all the way but in actuality it is much quicker and a MUCH easier drive. there are several campgrounds we passed that i had never heard of so if you figure about where you want to stop and then use the next exit book you can probably find either a campground or a walmart to stop at. have a nice/safe trip
