well, you could do that, and I guess Iâ??ll check the travel time to see how it
works out. I thought Iâ??d looked at that and it was a little slower, but it
probably varies day to day. Iâ??ve been getting off 84 in Newburgh, going up
9W, across the river and through Poughkeepsie and up 44 to Lime Rock. Or, you
can go up 87, but you have to overshoot Poughkeepsie and backtrack to get
across the river.
Basically, every route involves a compromise and some local roads.

Thanks for that Scott! Iâ??m coming from the South, so maps has me coming up
87, cutting over on 84, and up the Taconic Parkway. Based on your info, I
should stay on 84 to Brewster and up 22?
