Okay. The fixed travel plan is:

Chicago
San Diego
Toronto

The rest is a little more flexible, assuming I'm going to LA and Atlanta and not to Vegas on this trip (though I could, theoretically and bearing in mind I'm looking at a map with no real idea of distances, take a side trip to Vegas). Much as I would like to, I've been there before, I haven't been to Atlanta, and Mo and Avital want me in Atlanta. Speaking of which, girls, any chance of either a couch to sleep on or recommendations of hostels?

Georgia is close to Illinois, comparatively, considering California is on the other side of the country, and both are closer to Toronto. Would people recommend going to LA before San Diego, or before Toronto? And would a side trip to Vegas from California be feasible?

ETA: We have a plan! Chicago -> LA -> San Diego -> Vegas with Twiller and Frito -> Atlanta -> Toronto -> home.

Star? How are you getting from Chicago to LA?

Illinois and Georgia are pretty darn far apart, actually. Chicago's way up north, and Georgia's down in the Southeast.

Vegas is a day's drive from LA, so it'd be a pretty significant trek.

If you're wanting to hit all those places, a good order would be San Diego -> LA -> Vegas -> Chicago -> Toronto -> Atlanta. Big northern arc heading east.

Unfortunately, the Chicago, San Diego and Toronto stops are for cons, so I have to be there in that order. Anywhere else I go is to fill in empty time in between. :)

Nute, you're on crack. Vegas is about 5 hours from San Diego, or 4 from LA. Granted, that's without traffic (especially chancy from LA), but really it depends on when you leave.

Indeed. I've done a 24 hour trip to Vegas before. It's not a bad drive if you leave before traffic.

Flights from LA to LV start at, no kidding, $39 one way. Which is gas money basically.
