I'm a Motel 6 guy ...Thank you thank you Cindy.<br /><br />I'm a Motel 6 guy myself. I've already figured out which ones I'm flopping at. You can't beat 33 bucks, and they're clean enough for me. I have had zero problems with M6. No frills, but the Cable TV has a remote, and the sheets are clean, which is perfect for an idiot like me.<br /><br />Can you believe Pompey's Pillar (Tower) was just made a National Monument in 2001? <a href="http://www.nps.gov/history/history/online_books/lewisandclark/site24.htm" rel="nofollow"> Sheesh!</a>Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04253196269498737011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33360632.post-74411395063466872232010-06-10T22:40:41.655-05:002010-06-10T22:40:41.655-05:00Oh what a trip! Here's my two cents:
Fargo i...Oh what a trip! Here's my two cents:<br /><br />Fargo is a must see, must stay city. The downtown, not the sprawl. Stay at the HoDo (Hotel Donaldson). From there to Medora ... then Montana, and go by Pompey's Pillar. <br /><br />Helena, MT is a fabulous place, stay downtown ... HI gave us a rate of $89 and breakfast coupons. <br /><br />Although, I loved South Dakota too. <br /><br />Okay, you also need to listen to Joseph Marshall read his book "The Journey of Crazy Horse" ... start it just after you leave Illinois, and you'll cry your way to the Pacific.<br /><br />In a good way.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05147416487171740144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33360632.post-3073985590231532312010-05-31T13:18:13.625-05:002010-05-31T13:18:13.625-05:00I am so jazzed for this trip I can't really pu...I am so jazzed for this trip I can't really put it the way I want, so I wrote this thing....<br /><br />Saturday night was my Blackhawks, yesterday afternoon m'boy Dario won his 2nd Indy 500, talked to Rick in his truck somewhere in Montana for about an hour to tell him about my plan, woke up this morning to Park Ridge's Memorial Day Parade out my window, coffee/breakfast leisurely morning of mindless TV at the apartment, along with some coverage of Roland Garos along the way. Now it's over here to the office to check email & do my crossword, pick up a bottle of chianti at Trader Joe's, back home for the 7PM puck drop of game 2 of the Stanley Cup finals. I could get used to these 3 day weekends Swit.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04253196269498737011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33360632.post-54996572255287132872010-05-30T20:24:16.496-05:002010-05-30T20:24:16.496-05:00wow. really well done, m'boy. do it. also like...wow. really well done, m'boy. do it. also liked that hockey game last night. but you should tune in nbc right now.David Marlowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05691690666085909966noreply@blogger.com
