Just a quick post here.  Jaime and I were brainstorming some future road trips that are doable from Chicago.  We actually came up with this list quite a while ago, but I’m hoping that posting this will get us to start knocking them out.

Here’s the current list:

  • Memphis, TN (7 hours)
    — we already did this one a month ago; one down!
  • Madison, WI (3 hours)
  • Louisville, KY (4 hours)
  • Minneapolis, MN (7 hours)
  • Columbus, OH (5 hours)
  • Detroit, MI/Windsor, ON (4 hours)

We also came up with a list of cities we’d like to visit, but are not within driving range:

  • Charleston, SC
  • Austin, TX
    — we were in San Antonio recently, but didn’t make it to Austin; so close!
  • Portland, OR
  • Seattle, WA
  • Denver, CO
  • Las Vegas, NV

In other news, I’m just finished typing up my entire journal from the Vietnam, Cambodia, and South Korea trip.  I plan on posting it here once I clean it up a little bit, so stay tuned!

If you go to Minneapolis, I highly recommend the Hyatt Whitney’s Sunday brunch. It was the best brunch I have had anywhere.

Also if you ever plan to hit Denver give me a heads up and I will ask Brook and Lori for any don’t-miss local places.
