OK everyone, I have some mileage info.
Gary, IN to Baraboo, WI 227 mi.
Baraboo, WI to Albert Lea, MN 219 miles.
Albert Lea, MN to Rapid City, SD 515 miles.
Albert Lea is at I90 and I35.
Baraboo, WI to Jackson, MN 304 miles
Jackson, MN to Rapid City, SD 435 miles.
Miniapolis/St Paul to Jackson 182 miles.
Jackson is at I90 and US71.
My original plan was to stop at Albert Lea, but it looks like a better 1/2 way is at Jackson. That will shorten Sunday's trip a little. jakom is looking into a place for all of us (IN, IL, WI members) to meet in Baraboo, so you all can come in on 90. Since Baraboo to Jackson is only 304 miles, I think we could easily meet in Baraboo around noon. That gives Northface plenty of time to get to us, and we should be able to get to Jackson by 6:00 pm, even with a lot of stops. BTW- I plan to stop about every 2 hours for 10 minutes, because I will have a big dog and 2 kids in the back seat. Mdz66 and Biggie will be meeting up with us here, and if we leave by 9:am, we should be to Rapid City by 5:00 pm. I plan on taking 2 days (Sat & Sun the 26 & 27) to head back(Yes, on I90!).
I'm sending this plan in an email to everyone on the list. If you don't get it, let me know!!!
