Paulie,
I'll try to make it to this one. I've got plans for Saturday that may end real late. If I get up in time, I'll come down.
You know, it is in my best interest to show up with a blue one, to make all the other colors kind of look plain.
Spa owners may disregard that comment.

2Ting (or others from the Princeton/Trenton area) - If you want to meet on the way down, go to the PA welcome station on I-95, right over the Scudders Falls bridge. If I'm not there by 8:30, leave. The hour is plenty of time to get to the DE rest stop. If I'm going to make it, I'll be there.

BTW, there is a nice cafeteria available inside the gardens (see Terrace Dining on website). Admission is $12/pp and the gardens are open til 6 pm. It might be a nice bonus for any s/o coming along for the ride... or they could even go there in the am... and rendez-vous with you after the drive
The website also has a location map showing relation to Rte.1 and I-476.In general, the I-95 rest stop is a great spot to meet for ppl coming from South Jersey or MD, so don't let this sidebar distract...

As much as I would love to meet at Longwood Gardens, I think it's best if we all meet at the same place.
Anyone agree/disagree?
The reason I am saying this is so there isn't two stops, and Paulie was correct that the drive to Longwood Gardens was beautiful, and lastly so we can all be in one big group which looks nice!
Just my opinion.

Longwood Gardens is a really neat spot, if ppl have not seen it. I think the "Picnic" parking area could be a good alternate meeting spot (it's at the bottom of the site map of the gardens and is well-marked after you enter). WHAT ABOUT 10 AM FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO MEET ZIPPY AND ME THERE? Here's a link to their great website:
