I don't have this 100% formulated at this point, but the goal is to reach 
the convention site no later than 12:30PM on Tuesday 7/25.  If I'm correct, 
I'll be dealing with (will loose) a one hour time change in the midst of 
Indiana someplace.

Yahoo maps tells me it is 563 miles and 8 1/2 hours.  That seems a bit 
optimistic to me (average of 66mph), so I'm figuring on 9 hours drive time 
plus the hour that evaporates is 10 hours (on the adjusted clock).  So it 
looks like I need to be on the road at 2AM IL time in order to make my goal.

The bulk of the travel will be along I-80 (251 miles) AND in Ohio I switch 
over to I-90 for another 209 miles.  So with these items in mind, if you 
should be traveling 80 or 90 at the appropriate times, give me a call and 
we'll see if it is possible to hook up.  Cell phone # is 630 880-7773.  As 
always, I'll be on the lookout for other Vairs.

Oh, I'll most likely be in a '65 Cameo Beige (yes Seth - that boring color) 
Convert.  Unless weather becomes a serious factor, you won't need to know 
what color the top is since it will be out of sight.

Later, JR
