Boston to Allegheny

Dad just sent me his first missives from the road. There are photos up on the Flickr page, too -- looks like they've had some beach weather! Dennis writes:

Day 1 9/4/07

Late departure - Projected 9:00am - left at 9:30am, almost without Dennis. Sully pulls out with Dennis still in the driveway. We follow big "M" through Chelsea via Central Ave. A few pictures taken before departure. In the Central Artery we miss the Mass Pike exit and are forced to turn around further down the road to get back on track. On the road we do about 500 miles in 11 hours to check out the "ChelseaExpress". It passes with flying colors. We pulled in into the Allegheney State Park at 9:30pm. We tried to call the fabulous wives, but no cell towers available. We will try in the morning. First time hookup went fairly well, only had electric to worry about.

So they've only gotten lost once so far, and only egregiously broken one speed limit. Not a bad average for the first day.
