Well- the wife & kids are coming (teens- the kids, that is). We want to stop by Washington DC, Philidelphia, NYC, Boston, etc briefly just to see the sites. They've never been there & I'm no expert, so any advice on what to see & HOW to get there, traffic reccomendations, stuff like that- is what I'm looking for.
So- let me hear 'em!

Hey if they let ya, Id love for you to stop by- you practically have to drive past my shop exit to get to/from Maine from MA. (On RT 128/95) - Im at the other end from Pete at Comp Speciaties!
Dont know how teen the kids are but our IMAX theatre in Reading ma is cool and also has a place you can trapeze (its in Jordans Furniture) might be a good place to stop for ice cream ,relax for a few and let them blow off steam....
And Pete's right - the World of Wheel is a HUGE show up here- 2nd largest ISCA show.
Make sure to stay away from any highway on rush hour. If you need anything- you can call me too -day or night (PM me and Ill give you my cell #) and we have pals in Portland Maine too (Extreme Rod and Custom-Jonathan White) if you need help while y'all are up there
Ben: I hear ya on the snow- took Dana 5 hrs to get from Waltham to Burlington AND she ran out of gas (had a 1/2 tank when she left) and had to be pushed to the gas station!
