Hey Roger, Bruce or anyone local;

I was looking at the map and the direction we are coming looks like there is a rather sharp turn off East Shore onto North Pawnee Rd. Remembering that we are in a large motorhome with a trailer behind, will this turn be a problem or should I find an alternate route?

Thanks for any help...
Marian

Left??? It looks like a right. We would be coming off 55 on East Lake Shore Dr and unless there is something unique to that intersection it looks like a right hand turn. Just making sure--the motorhome/trailer thing is much longer than our fifth wheel was.

Ok. your coming from the other way.. Yes. Its a right hand turn then.
No problem. The road is wide enough for you to slide over prior to turning.

Sorry guys, I encountered a snag for the weekend and can't make this one either. Looks like it'll be just the regionals for me. Sorry!...

Sorry to hear that Mike. We wanted to wish you luck in person at TOC. Good Luck anyway!

Marian,

Both roads are like blacktops so the turns are fairly wide to accomodate large vehicles. By the way, I was the guy sitting next to you at Effingham.

Thanks, Bruce. I really do appreciate that. I really do. If anything, getting there is like winning if you ask me...

Mike;

Bummer that you can't make it. Who's going to be the photographer this time???

Bruce;

Thanks for the info. Sometimes maps don't tell you everything. Ok, so you were the guy with the Extra right next to us. It was a nice field and I hope that contest really "takes off". See you tomorrow!!

Marian
