I've been wanting to make a trip tothe Palo Durofor over 30 yrs. after I read about the wild Aoudad there in a hunting magazine.

By the way, does anyone know if there's major construction or other significant information concerning Interstates 40, 24, 57, 64, 70, 29, 80 or Nebraska state roads 2, 27, and 20 on our route that we should know about? We're planning on stopping the first night in Mt.Vernon, IL which should put us going through St. Louis about 9:30 A.M. and Kansas City around 3:00 P.M.or so on the second day. We hope that will avoid morning and noon rush hour traffic in those cities.Any suggestions and/or tips will be greatly appreciated.
