    There is a holiday inn express a mile or two from my house. Between couches, guest bed, and air mattresses my house can comfortably sleep about 8.

    I need an electrical outlet. And a pillow. You got those I'm good. I got a cpap I need to sleep so I don't die.

    I'd rather drive a truck, instead of a passenger van. I'm looking at this list I made, and the situation is not as bad as I thought. I don't think I'll need to bring a passenger van. My plan is to leave Milwaukee Sunday headed west in order to avoid Chicago traffic going home. We did that Last year, and it was a bit longer mileage-wise but better than driving through Chicago again. So, I wouldn't be taking anybody or anything back to Patrick's on Sunday. I know some of the drivers will not be heading back to Chicago and if there is a problem getting people and stuff back to Patrick's I will drive that direction if necessary.

    Passengers
    Nick
    Chris
    Frank
    Wayne
    Carol

    Drivers
    Bob & Glenn + 3 + Gear & luggage in the bed (Crew Cab Pickup)
    Ricky & Ann + 4 (Ford Explorer)
    Patrick & Colleen + Gear (any room left?)
    John + 2-3?
    Charlie + 3?
    Calvin +3? (if he doesn't ride the motorcycle)
    Jim? Thursday? Friday?

    Have I forgotten anything? Anybody?

    I'll be Driving to Milwaukee from my house on Friday, and I'll be leaving Saturday night to return home.

    I'll also have a Weber grill in back, so I'd be 1 passenger at best.

    I know, You're a big dog and I'm on the list.

    My boss called me yesterday to see if I’d ride over. Nope. Don’t wait until the day before I’m due to get off to ask me.

    I won't be able to make it on Thursday as I originally planned. I'll meet y'all in Milwaukee on Friday.

    My cross country travels start today. Plane is already delayed an hour. I'll be in the sky or on the road till I land in Chicago on Thursday.

    I can't say yet, I'm going to depend on the weather. If the weather before the herf looks warm and sunny, I'm going to do this first and show up at Peter's on Friday. If the weather is crummy before the herf, then I'll be there Thursday and do this after the herf.

    It's supposed to be rainy both this week and next week in Canada, but I think there are enough gaps this week to make it through while only getting a little wet, whereas next week the weather is mostly just guessing. So I'm going to give it a shot and see everyone at Peter's on Friday. I may need to commandeer Peter's laundry machines for a few hours when I get there though.

    Any idea of how many will be there? We are planning on bringing snacks and some extra chairs if needed.
