Okay, we did the dry run today... it's a very pretty drive and was a lot of fun... lots of straights if we choose to stretch our legs a little. 
I am going to make two modifications to the drive based on what we learned today.
i) I think we'll cut the Delaware Water Gap out of the drive - there are two bottlenecks that are a pain for traffic and I don't think that any of us would have the patience to sit there in traffic.
ii) Ask you all to bring along picnic lunches. We can grab food up there, but I think it would be much more fun to eat up at the monument and enjoy the view. If the weather is bad, then there are near-by restaurants that we can use as a Plan B.
In terms of timing, the arriving back a little after 2pm still seems reasonable. We left at 8am and arrived there at 10:15am. An early picnic lunch would get us back on the road before noon and at our end point before 2pm.
