80 looks nasty.
Other issues: When are we coming back? How long will the layover in Cleveland be on the return? Overnight is fine, just need a number so we can clear the floor space.

Are you aware of all the rain?
There's some flooding going on in Philly. Flooding closed many roads in the Philadelphia area, including the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Officials walked rafts through deep water to ferry children out of a tennis camp in Philadelphia.

you could do that...OR...
...you could take that to Md...cut over 70 around Balt and up 95...that may be quicker than going up into PA and over. (not may..it will)...

Valley Forge exit of PA tpke
and i think that remains 76...and stay right and keep driving (there will be a split at PHL and left takes you ctr city...right takes you airport and sports arenas. then another split that left takes you airport and right takes you sports and walt whitman bridge to NJ...cross the whitman and keep going to sicklerville exit (again...staying right at a split)...then you should recognize the place.
If you are going to the bar first...talk to Barry...you may want to take NE extension (stay on tpke to rt 1 exit) and find the bar from there.
I will likely either show and leave...or just show at 10:30P after an airport run for 2 important guests.

Talk to the driver.
I have Monday off so my schedule is open, other than the probably obvious fact that my wife would prefer me to be home Sunday night.

In case anyone's interested ...
We do have the beach club with pool if anyone wants to break up the drive and hang out a bit.

I am open. Monday off here as well.
But we can do the Sunday Death Drive. Usually I get Scott home ~1AM, then 3AM for me-self.
But if we are leaving on Monday, I'd like to leave ~6AM, no later than 7AM, but closer to 6AM if possible.
I do not care, just that Monday departure time is a pretty good want from me, if we don't do the Sunday Death Drive.
BTW, I couldn't get an auto adapter for the Inspiron.
Car is mostly cleaned up, just a few areas of concern on my part. Wife will be dealing with that.

7ish hours to Drew's, spend the night, up early and get both of us home at a reasonable time on Monday.

Relinquish hardware to AdminiScott, assuming you're done with it, please. He's agreed to deliver end of July when he re-visits Chicagoland.

Can do, but will ship direct to you also

After the fiasco...
...I'm not sure I trust shipping, y'know? Perhaps ScottEx (UPScott?) is a better delivery method. Might take a little longer, though...

What're the odds???
that the kids in my neighborhood will travel to Chicago to swipe the box from your front porch? (most likely scenario of what happened)

Re: What're the odds???
So the neighborhood kids are walkin' around with a power cord that they don't have the thing-it-connects-to? Greaaaaaaaaat.
Anyway, I don't really have a need for it immediately, so July 29th-ish is good enough.
