Yodeya Con
Mi Yodeya (the Jewish Q&A site on Stack Exchange) will be five years old in a couple weeks, and the founder is hosting a celebration. Mi Yodeya is a worldwide community, so no matter where it's held only a small portion of users could come, but fortunately for me the founder now lives within driving distance of my house. (This is a recent-ish change.) Woot! I get to spend a shabbat with somebody I'm very interested in meeting and talking more with, and his family, and a dozen or two others. This'll be fun! And attendees are being encouraged to give short divrei torah (torah talks), so as soon as I finish preparing this week's, I'll need to give that some thought. First impressions, you know. :-)
On a side note, I'm glad Google Maps tells me which roads along a path are toll roads, and I'd be even happier if it told me the toll.

"Con," no less!
I am very tempted to adopt the "YodeyaCon" coinage, but I don't want to oversell a Shabbat meal too much!
I think we're all going to have a good time with the divrei Torah. There are going to be some interesting outlooks represented around the table (like on Mi Yodeya 8^), and I expect that we won't have to try to hard to get it to be nice and interactive.
FYI: Your last toll link (according to GMaps) will cost you more if you don't have EZPass. $2.60 without and $1.60 with. I suspect that for this trip, it will save you some time and congestion-driving compared to non-toll alternatives.
