dwright said: I'm not sure of my timing yet, except I plan to be at the hotel on Wednesday evening sometime.
From my house to the hotel is 811 miles via I-90 to I-94 to I-894 to US 45 N to US 41 N to WI 441 N to Little Chute and Appleton.

Is 894 a by-pass around Chicago?

If I leave Tuesday after work and drive to Toledo, I should be at the hotel in time for din-din.



No Dave!!  894 is a bypass around Milwaukee, not Chicago.  Take 94 from Chicago then 141 ir 43 to Little Chute.  Need more help??  Call my cell if you get "lost"
See you at the Motel on Wednesday (I'll have the daning crew waiting for ya!!)  (^^^)

dads2vette said: I'll be staying at the Stay Inn in Lombard, IL.  Depending on when you folks leave Rockford, IL, I can meet up with you then.  They're about 90 minutes apart.   I was going to head up 94 to 43 to 45 but I can head west a little earlier, I'm easy.


You know, I remember listening to my grandparents and granduncles talking about heading to Fl.  This had to be back in the late 60's early 70's..."We get on the 17 the hit 15 down to the 81..."  I would think WTF (what the fart, I was 8) are they talking about?


You are the most correct  daddy-O !!!  I would follow you anywhere!!!  Well, most anywhere!!!!!

The only place anyone should follow me is to the bar...I have yet to get lost going to the bar!  Beer

On the way home...well let's just say that if I get confused, I'll call a cab!

Don't be surprised if we show up around Madison or later.  We'll try to catch up but don't know about the county mounties in Iowa and Wisconsin.   Wink  Evil Smile  Big smile

Larry and Dave, once we have an estimated time to leave on Wednesday morning, I'll give you a call so we can estimate a meeting point.
