Sorry Jim, That was from my house to Minot, ND.
Not sure if I would go north of Lake Ontario or south.
Might be able to do 1517 miles in two days, but it will depend on who I hook up with, if anyone.
Traveling by myself I get an early start like 6 AM and drive for 12 hours, covering 750 miles.

But with a caravan probably only do 500 miles per day, so three days to Minot.
Leave Sunday morning, arrive Tuesday evening.
 

OOPS...!!!  Embarrassed   SORRY...!!!  But regardless you're still a "Road Warrior"...!!!

Cutting through Canuckland from Buffalo to Port Huron and then heading up thru Michigan, Wisconsin and Minne-snow-ta to get to Minot is shorter distance-wise but a little longer time-wise.  It would be a pretty drive tho'.  Cool   AND you'd miss the fun of going through Cleveland and Chicago.   Thumbs Up

Yes. I will be flying in my 2004 CE coupe with flaps up.

Dwight if you plan on coming thru Ontario add a couple days to your list. It took me 20 hours to come across there, speed limit is only 90 km/hr, it is often rainy and foggy passing lanes are a long ways apart and in summer when the campers are on the road I was often only doing 70 km/hr. I said never again would i drive ontario

Margie and I are still planning on going if no more emergencies crop up (like last year).  Our plans put us in Minot on Tuesday nite, so we could meet up too.  Sounds like a great time.
