But all the downshifting gets in the way of the road head.... ::rolleyes::

Yes, 206 is a much nicer drive -- if you actually like driving.  If, on the other hand, you prefer to set the cruise control and just zone out, skip 206.

For getting back to Ithaca from Burlington, go this way:
Rt 7 -> Rt 22A -> Rt 4 -> Rt 149 -> I-87 -> I-90W (briefly around Albany) -> I-88 and so on.

And do me a favor and swear heavily at the cop outside Vergennes who gave me a ticket last night.  (Shut up, Newman!)

It seems to me that this trip always produces at least one speeding ticket out of the Faithful group.  Those Vermont roads are boring.

Or maybe the cops are just nasty.  Come to think of it, the only two speeding tickets I've ever gotten were Vermont-related.

Hey, it's still better than the trip to Placid, which seems prone to produce car accidents.

(Or maybe my view on this is colored due to the fact that the first time I went to Placid, I was in a car accident (not me driving) on the way there, and then rode home in a DIFFERENT car that'd had an accident on the way there.)

My first trip up to LP was last year. On the way up, my car had a run in with a deer. ::twitch::  That's always fun.

My parents hit a moose on their honeymoon near Lake Placid.  Totalled the car -- the moose just walked away.

I sense a pattern.

From what I can tell, the pattern is "driving with Greg or his family is done at the passenger's own risk." ::laugh::

ROTFLMAO.
