Friday, I am going to try and leave earlier than usual for the drive back to DC. Picking the departure time is always a challenge - if you leave too early, you hit NYC traffic, but if you leave too late and have to make a pit-stop to answer the call of nature, who wants to leave the dogs in the car on a hot day, even for a matter of seconds. So, I am planning a 6:30 a.m. departure from Connecticut. Consequently, I shall not be posting on Friday morning.
