Time for the first of my annual trips. This one is to the Book Expo America in Chicago during the first weekend of June.
We always try to visit family on these trips so we usually add a week either before or after the expo.
This year we are visiting my sister in Bismarck. Fortunately my niece is graduating from High School the weekend we will be in Bismarck, so that gives us an added perk.
To get decent airfares we are flying into MSP because flying to BIS is about $1000 per person coach! Also as we return to MSP we will have about 3 days to visit with my wife's Uncle, cousins and assorted other relatives in the MSP area.
From MSP we are taking AMTRAK to Chicago for the show. After the show we again take AMTRAK back to MSP to catch our flight back to TUS.
Should be a fairly extensive trip report for everyone after we get back.
