I have put together a Caravan route to Myrtle creek since Ive returned and it is below, its open for suggestions and such expecially from listee's that are more familiar with the highways out west in the deserts of Utah, Nevada and Oregon. Ive tried to keep the days a little more reasonable than the 02 route so we have time to stop along the way, get out, stretch etc. and take pictures. The last day is a short one so we can arrive in Myrtle creek well rested and in plenty of time for the BBQ. If anyone has a better place to stay that is closer to Salt lake City than Lakeview OR that would be better but there isn't much to choose from out in no man's land.

Keith >> I thought we were leaving Russ's place on tuesday morning? With monday as a travel day from Detroit/Toledo to Russ's. John J. have a rough intinery where I was going to meet him in Battle Creek on monday. I had thought about leaving here on sunday though, and getting to Russ's house on a sunday evening and taking a liesurely trip across country. : ) I've been across country a few times, but never stopped to smell the roses so to speak. :O We'll have to wait and see on which route would work the best.
