I would suggest staying on I-35 until you get to I-90 and the first exit for Austin is a 1/4 mile from Holiday Ford.

That's usually the way we take home. We'll chat tomorrow morning and see what everyone is up for doing :)

WOW... a little rain is one thing... but...

Currently the weather is calling for a 50% change of Thunderstorms from roughly 4am to 4pm down there, and
earlier up here. Not cancelling our trip yet, but we will be checking weather around 4am tomorrow morning.
If things are still looking ugly, we will NOT be going down.

Will post up our decision here first thing in the morning, will Text WYSI and F8L as well to make sure everyone
is in the know.

We are a go for the schedule posted above.

Looking wet down there now and for the next few hours, but then all broken up.
Chance of rain, yup

We LEAVE I-35 rest area south of Elko at 8am
Stopping at Kwik Trip in Owatonna (Cabelas exit) to pickup others.
Will text/phone them to be sure they are still "in" along the way.

Probably staying on freeways all the way this time for best chance
of dry roads.

See everyone who can make it!
