Does the TA go through PA?
I suspect lots of people are out there right now. Mid to late May is a popular time to start E-W. I was on part of the TA in MT in mid June of 2014 and camped with nearly a dozen people heading west.
Have fun!

Where in CT and where in PA will you be meeting your friend? I live in Philadelphia and have crossed the state several times. I’ve also ridden home from New England, passing through N. Canaan, CT.

Keep in mind that there will be great pressure on many established camping locations this summer. Just made a Sunday reservation at a NJ state park I’ve been to so often the ranger who runs the office recognizes my name when she sees it on the reservation sheet and even knows my favorite site if I haven’t made a reservation. The place has more than 160 sites. Occupation looked to be around 80%, if not greater. I’ve never seen it that booked at this time of year even on weekends.
