Where to fly into near Southbridge, MA?
I might have to get to Southbridge, MA and don't know where I'd fly into. If you know the area well and can tell me the closest airport with regional service?
Thanks,
Duck

I grew up in that general area and I've noticed that since I've been in TX for the last 11 years, people's sense of scale (including mine) is way off. As you know, it can take 2 hours just to drive across the DFW metroplex. Houston is "right down the road" and that's 4 hours. If you drove for 4 hours from CT, you would hit at least 3 states. Hell, DC is only 5 hours. See what I'm saying"
Also, the road infrastructure is different up there. Just like there's no unincorporated county land (every square inch is part of a municipality) up there, there really aren't dirt roads to nowhere like we have in TX. If it looks like a route works on a map, it probably will without any problems.

If you go into Hartford, just watch yourself on the drive of I-84 east as you depart Hartford for the MA border. Lots and lots of state police along the way.
Logan and I-90/Masspike west isn't bad, there will just be tolls and potentially a good amount of congestion
