Over the river and through the woods to… gorge ourselves on turkey! We can’t help stuff the bird, but we can offer tips on getting to grandma’s in one piece. Whether you’re arriving by train, plane or automobile, knowing the best travel tips makes the journey easier. We’ll have experts to share tips on how to pack, where to park, how to zip through security, where to fill up the gas tank and how that EZ pass works on the turnpike. Getting home for the holidays without all the hassles, Friday at 9 on 90.3.
