I surprised the wife

[Jdmcfast]

With a new (to us) vehicle this weekend. We are leaving to drive from Kansas to New Jersey this Friday with 4 kids in tow. Since the AC went out and we are in the middle of a battle with insurance over hail damage on our Yukon XL I figured it was time to get a newer vehicle we can all fit in.

Actually my wife mentioned that today lol. She asked if anybody on my forums would be in the way that might let us stop by and tour their fishroom. I don't know off the top of my head who that would be but anybody willing give me a shout and we will see if we can make it work. BTW we made this same trip last June and it was....let's just say interesting to say the least lol

Sounds good it's a little out off or way but my wife has a friend in the Chicago area too so we are gonna try to stay the night there either on the way there or more likely on the way home:D
Frank is also in that area isn't he? Anyone else?

Hey Josh, I wish I was able to welcome guests, but with my wife's failing health it's just not possible at this time.  Sorry.

And Capt'n Bob's up just across the Wisconsin border....who else am I forgetting?

[Jdmcfast]

We are about an hour from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania now, another six hours or so and we should be at our New Jersey destination! It looks like we will be through the Chicago area next Monday, actually late Sunday nite/Monday morning. Jon do you have any recommendations on a place to stay that close to your part of the neighborhood? And does that work for you guys? Scott?
