That day will be devoted to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.artic.edu\/\">Chicago Institute of Art<\/a>. We also hope to catch some music at a blues club, but that will depend on Ooma&#8217;s health.<\/li><li><strong>St Louis MO<\/strong>: 2 nights where the main event will be a visit to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stlzoo.org\/\">St Louis Zoo<\/a>.<\/li><li><strong>Tupelo MS<\/strong>: 2 nights. We don&#8217;t have any firm plans yet, but this is where Elvis was born.<\/li><li><strong>Daphne AL<\/strong>: 2 nights. We will visit with Ooma&#8217;s sister.<\/li><li><strong>Lake City FL<\/strong>: one night. This is just an overnight stop but we might take a slight detour on our way home to visit the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flsouthern.edu\/home.aspx\">Florida Southern University<\/a> which has many buildings designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.<\/li><li><strong>Fort Myers FL<\/strong>. Home at last. Collect Rusty (and see if he remembers me), put our feet up and rest.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>1,676 miles in 6 hops. There will be some very long travel days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After discussing our plan for getting from Madison WI back to Ft Myers &#8211; a plan that featured stops in Asheville NC and Savannah GA &#8211; and looking at the prices for Biltmore ($79 each, or more), we decided to change the route to include a stop to see Ooma&#8217;s sister near Mobile AL.
