Guys

I want to try and be there if I can - subject to wife's health and being able to get a US visa 
quickly. Your combined thoughts (off-list to avoid swamping it might be better?) regarding travel 
would be appreciated.

1. What is the closest international airport to the Glen? Currently I'm checking fares out of the UK 
from BHX, LGW and LHR to the various airports in New York state - i.e. JFK, NYC and La Guardia. If I 
do opt for a New York airport, is there anyone on the list travelling to the Glen from that general 
area from whom I could bum a lift? Happy to meet fuel costs if this will help.

2. If I can't get a lift, everyone's recommendations on the cheapest car rental firm would be 
appreciated. I want something small and cheap like a VW Golf/Rabbit.

3. What's the approximate driving time from New York to the Glen or from any other usable airport to 
the Glen?

Looking forward to your thoughts

Cheers, Jonmac
