	Until I retired, we used to have to take that route,
because we went (and still go) clear to the bottom of I-81
and past -- in one day, usually on a weekend.

	There are no quiet weekends on 81 -- unless xmas
falls on a weekend, *and* you travel on the day itself.

	If you can go either way on a day before or after
the weekend, do it. If you can take two days either way, do
it -- and avoid 81 altogether. That's what we do now, and
aaaahhhhhhh!, the blessed relief!

	I doubt I hate 81 as much as people hate 95 -- but
that's only partly because I never commuted either.
