We will be on the I-90. The abbrev. itinerary didn't detail all the
overnight stops. From Sturgis we stop overnight at Mitchell and then
to La Crosse Wi. I'm looking at the road atlas now and see where you
are. That would be fun to meet up at Stewartville. Possibly Tues
29th Sept.
Bits of the trip are booked and we then hope to keep to the schedule I
have mapped out taking into consideration sightseeing, breaks (LQSs),
road conditions etc. The camper (and us) have to be in Boston on Oct
7th.
Thanks Julia! Just shoot me an email a few days before if you would
be so kind and we will see how the timing is going.

On a previous trip to the US (Paducah 05) I met up with a group of
rctq'ers which was great fun.
Cheers Bronnie

Only thing I would add is seeing Crazy Horse while you're
in SD. Well worth the trip. It's larger than Mt. Rushmore
and all them presidents put together!

And if you're traveling I-90 across South Dakota, you'll go past
Mitchell, about half-way across the state. It's worth a short side trip
(no more than a few miles) to see the Corn Palace.

After you leave LaCrosse for Chicago, you'll go through/pass Sparta.
There is a nice quilt shop there called Quilt Corner.
