Sorry to pipe in late...I'd love to joint the caravan-but I think that initial plan sounds too aggressive for me and my squareback. I'd vote for adding a day. I also am not sure my squareback will be ready in time for a big trip like that-I hope so. Or maybe if you guys give me a head start ;) Last invasion, I only made it about halfway. I hope to have given my squareback a more thorough review before the next big trip. Then again, it was running fine before the last attempt... -Kevin '71 FI squareback '65 kombi somerville, ma -----Original Message----- From: John Jaranson [mailto:jaransonT3@comcast.net] Sent: Sunday, February 26, 2006 11:05 PM To: type3@vwtype3.org Subject: Re: [T3] Im back, and I have a Plan (invasion Caravan) On Feb 26, 2006, at 12:17 PM, Keith Park wrote: > Im not sure what other routes have been planed but > If you leave Russ' on Tuesday morning you wont make it in time, Leaving > Indianola on Monday morning is the only way to get to the BBQ on > Thursday This is what I had proposed initially. Day 1 - Dearborn, MI to Russ Wolfe's place in Iowa. 610 miles Day 2 - Indianola, IA to Rawlins, WY. 794 miles Day 3 - Rawlins, WY to Boise, ID. 587 miles Day 4 - Boise, ID to Myrtle Creek, OR. 627 miles. Total Miles: 2618!!!!! One way! That 2nd day is a long one, but it is also just about as straight and flat as we will get and I think it is the same as when we went to ID in '02. I really don't have a problem at all making the days a bit shorter and adding a day to the trip.
