Expect lots of construction (ie delays). Try not to travel during peak travel hours (around 7:30 to 9:30 a.m. and 4:00 to 6:30 p.m. Monday-Friday) there is just more traffic. It's not a pretty drive, but it will get you there. Plan at least 2 hours for little traffic and construction delays. We haven't done this drive for a couple of years, so I'm really not sure of the construction progresss.
