This fall, I'll be hosting a road meet to check out the sights of Rochester and southeast Minnesota, such as the new I-90/Highway 52 interchange and the Zumbrota Covered Bridge. Let me know above which dates work for you.

Oof...I'd love to make it, but my travel budget is squeezed as is.  I see you're keeping in mind the CA meet, though.

That new interchange at I-90 and US Route 52 stopped me from completing my clinch of US Route 52 last summer-- and I worked so hard on it! But that just means that a Rochester road meet sounds extra tasty to me right now, since I can use it as an excuse to finally finish Route 52! The date of this meet will determine when I take a week trip to clinch some of US14 and routesnap the east half of South Dakota, since the road meet will be rolled into the front end of that trip.
Avatar is the last interesting highway I clinched.

I am seriously interested in going to this one.

Definitely not October 3 for me. But beyond that, I won't know until I have my surgery schedule later this month.

It's not likely that I'll be able to attend this meet, but I am interested and don't want to completely rule it out.  I did cast a vote, just in case.

Just to assuage any potential weather-related concerns from those who may have worries about MN snowstorms in November, it's unlikely that we will see any dangerous snow events that early. I would feel comfortable making any drives until around Thanksgiving.

Meh, yeah.  Rochester is far enough south.  It ain't Duluth.
