virginia: I live in Fairfax, Virginia and plan to drive to Lexington, Massachusetts next Tuesday. Yahoo and Google Maps both give me routes all the way on I-95, which I can't imagine would be an enjoyable ride. I don't mind driving a little further to avoid stop-and-go.|||I (live in Herndon) used to make this trip twice a year and this time of year, it may be better for you to go through Hartford Connecticut to avoid some of 95. Just take 91-N in New Haven and follow that to Hartford. After that you pick up 84-E and follow that to 90 (Mass. Turnpike), which will take you right to 128N which I think you can find your way from there. Alternatively, you could take 81N from Winchester all the way through PA and pick up 84 all the way thru Scranton, PA, NY, CT, and on to Mass. Turnpike, etc. The alternate avoids 95 all together, it is a somewhat boring drive and not recommended in the winter.
