We live in NH and often travel to Maryland to Assateague island with our camper. That said on the way there we drive at night coming they NYC between 3 and 6 in the morning be depending on when we get out the door. If we have to drive during the day we drive the routes the others are mentioning or we even at times go up as far as Albany and either grab 90 back down or we deliver my mother to her home in western Mass thru the back hills of the Berkshire's and then take route 2 and 91. As my mother at times will go with us camping. But if it's daytime we avoid GW all together if we can.
