Erie, PA

Well, we got off at about 9:45 this a.m. Travel was fine, a bit sloppy at first, but then dry road on Mass Turnpike. We decided to take I-88 to Binghamton, and then I-86 to Erie. We went through some flurries around Bath, NY but they ended pretty quickly. We are in a Super 8 at Erie tonight. Ellen is feeling a bit under the weather. Rare for her. I'm doing pretty well. In the car I read some aloud, we listened to NPR and also a Teaching Company lecture series on "American English and Dialects."  Tomorrow should be an ok day for travel and we expect to arrive in Bartlett by early evening.
