thanks to everybody's advice helping me get to exton, too bad the
interview sucked, but I don't have to go there anymore.. ;)

Here is what I found out,  it's a really nice drive going up through
historic Port Deposit, up through the rolling hills of North MD and
south PA,  it's is really incredible to be on the road for more than 
an hour and not see a damn Booger King, nor McRats,  beautiful scenery
up there, some spots I could look around sometimes for miles and only
see farms ahnd hills and houses...

I figured 1.4 hours was pushing it,  expecting traffic, I left 2.5
hours before my interview and got there about 5 minutes before I 
was due. There was no traffic all traffc was going the opposite direction.

I took 295 -> 95 north from Baltimore, up past the Sesquehanna River,
to 222 north, to Route 1 into PA till I hit 202 north, turned off
at Rte 100 north till I hit PA 30 and exton.

mind you there is huge amounts of construction on rte 1 just inside PA.


I wanted to unwind after the interview, so I took the scenic route home,
From Exton, Route 30 West until I hit Route 10 South ( nice road )
took PA 10 South to route 1 south to 276 south down into Port Deposit
 ( I like that downhill grade into Port DEposit) went on 222 to 95 south to
 295 south to home.

mind you there is hugh amounts of construction on 30 west of Exton.

phew, My trip Odemeter said it was about 125 miles each way and it did
take 2.5 hours each way...  Thanks again everybody...
