Okay, it's bedtime for this guy.

They've made it to the Ramapo Service Plaza on 84 near the NJ border.

Without traffic this is a 3:30 drive. They're 8 hours in.

I think they'll now take the GSP to the NJTP to the Penna Turnpike. I expect them to get in between 3 and 4.

They are several standard deviations out from the mean.

I mean that's one piece of it, yes.

My FIL needs to see a shrink. Badly.

Dude didn't even get his degree.

You’re basically going diagonal to the demand so not surprising. That’s actually a reasonably nice drive.
November 27, 2025 at 2:48 AM
Guys they made it half an hour before pulling off. Haven’t crossed the hudson.

Good lord I hope they just get a hotel room tonight they shouldn’t be driving until 3.

They take 84 to the thruway because … reasons. It only adds 15 minutes of driving and avoids the city and tappan zee. Defensible.

Where there’s a will there’s a way.

New York! 6 hours in! #BOSPHL25

9:08 departure. Store closed at 9. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Oh they’ll make it … lord knows when.
November 27, 2025 at 2:09 AM
I’ve seen it done as Zoë and is that more or less annoying?
November 27, 2025 at 1:57 AM
Zoe, Zoey and Zooey are all the same.

That was a relatively quick stop. They made it past Danbury. They’re now at a Trader Joe’s. Last chance before the holiday I guess.

It closes at 9 so it can’t be a long stop.

5:30 in and I think they’re about halfway.

This is a very fair question.

Reins closes at 8 now, though.
November 27, 2025 at 1:11 AM
They exited and went around some traffic, are now at a gas station next to a Dunks. How long will they spend?

#BOSPHL25

They're in the traffic, which means they're going to have to go as long as AN HOUR or MORE without stopping.

They're approaching an exit. Will they exit?

#BOSPHL25
November 27, 2025 at 12:37 AM
They're headed for this. Will they get off to avoid it? Or to make a pit stop?

I feel like I am overusing the shrug emoji but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not sure how long the stop there was but they’re through Hartford so probably looking for their next stop.

They made it 35 minutes to a Big Y in Tolland.

35 minutes.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

No! A civic!
November 26, 2025 at 11:04 PM
Okay they’re on the move. 30 minute rest stop. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

They’ve been there 30 minutes. I’m going for a run. Hopefully they’ll be in Connecticut by our next checkin.
