Well, now its 2011 and I'm ready to try it again. This time I'm allowing 4 days in each direction. Any of you guys going? Be great to meet up with some of you guys.


I may be going as well. When are you leaving to head out?

My plan is to leave on the 4th. Average 500 miles/day. My current plan is to leave SD on the 13th to head back. I'll be staying in Motels while on the road.

I'd like to go this year.....finally have enough vacation and $$$ but I'm not into camping. Any good places to stay in the area that aren't booked a year in advanced? Most of my freinds have gone and don't want to go back this year. I'd be leaving from St. Louis area.
