[SEL] Buckley, Baraboo, Portland?

[David Rotigel]

Other considerations as well, Alan.
	1.) The ferry leaves early morning (8:00 am)--that means a night in a  
motel after leaving Baraboo.
	2.) The $77.00 seems to be for a car. I would have a truck plus an  
18' trailer with aprox 10,000 lbs GVW.
	3.) I think, also, it would be another $71.00 for me (the $77 is only  
for a car.)
	4.) They also offer "Girlfriend Getaways." I would HATE to book on a  
"Fudgepacker Friday" special!

PS, I'll still call tomorrow and check it out! THANKS!
