    Haha, it does a bit. Long drive. It's not too bad though, stop a few times here and there along the way to rest a bit and get some food and such. It's nice though, when I cross the border, speed is like Game on! US speed limits > Canada

    I should be arriving on Thursday early AM.
    I am leaving Wednesday mid afternoon… 13ish hour drive. I will be towing the Z. I only get 9mpg in the Z… haha, so there is no way to drive it that far.
    Here is my tow setup....

    I'm aiming to be there either wednesday night or thursday morning, leaving wednesday morning sometime around 3-4am to get a good start and drive pretty much all the way through, stopping for food, gas, rest and so on.

    We had change in plan.
    Monday we only drive from Chicago to Springfield, Il. Spend night in there and leave early morning to Branson. Hoping to be there 10-11am.

    Much more safer than driving 8h+ after 20h of airtravel.

    A lot of Branson still hasn't recovered from the tornado that hit two years ago. Another would be devastating.

    In other news, Missouri is finally planning to redo much of the highway and main roads into, throughout, and out of Branson. Downside is it's a 4-6 year plan from what I've heard. Traffic already sucks there anyway.

    They had some killer storms down in that area yesterday, hopefully all is well. I heard something while watching the OKC live news feed about Branson, the same storm that hit the Moore area moved into that area/Ozark, something with debris that was falling from the sky. But, who knows. There was so much going on with schools being hit and people trapped.

    That whole area got hit pretty hard in the last couple of days.

    I checked the weather for the week I am there, and it's supposed to be in the 30's (celcius) and "feels like" 40's (celcius), and sunny.. So, the car should be okay. Not too sure how well the car would fair with grapefruit sized hail hah

    Now all I gotta do is wash the car when the weather warms up a bit more, and pack it, and pack my bag … Check all fluids and tire pressures before I leave of course. and fuel up. hah. GPS locked and loaded. So close

    Weather looks to be in the mid 80s and partly cloudy next weekend. Pretty standard for Branson at this time of the year.
