OK, the table that I sent Gasser at the bottom of the Yellow Serial route info for him to post on the website seems to have gotten dropped and it doesn't look like it wants to post here in a readable format... (I'm computer challenged...). So:
Leave Doswell at: 8:30AM
Leave Millersville at: 11:45AM
Leave Baltimore tunnel toll booths at: 12:45PM
Arrive Aberdeen 1:40PM
Leave Ollies' in Aberdeen for Ripken Stadium at 3:00PM
Dave, shoot me your cell phone number again and I'll give you a call when we pull out of the Millersville Transit Truck Stop (located on Veterans' Highway at the intechange where we jump on I97. Or tell me where you want me to call you from so that you can time it. If past Convoy timming holds, we should be hitting the tolls at 12:30 ish (I've got some float time listed above for paying tolls, but some years they wave us through...).
