Waukesha.

Waukesha, WI 53186.
We will meet there at 10 am.
To get there, just follow this map and these directions:
Southeastern Wisconsin.
From the North (Green Bay, Escanaba, MI, etc.)
-
Head south on U.S. 41 until you reach Hartford, WI.
-
You will exit on WI 60. Turn right (west) at the end of the off ramp
and get in the left lane ASAP. I think the next stop light is WI
164. Turn left (south) here. [Please note: This is not really
WI 164. WI 164 ends one mile south of your location at WI 175.
This road, however, will connect directly into WI 164.] Go straight
for about one mile. You will cross WI 175 by a stop sign. Be
careful... this is a dangerous intersection. Now you are on WI 164.
-
Go south on WI 164 for about 40 miles. You will cross WI 167 and
County Q. The road has almost no curves in it until you near Sussex.
You will pass south through Sussex.
-
In about two miles there will be a stop light at WI 190 (Capitol Drive).
WI 164 turns to the left. Straight ahead of you is County Hwy J.
Go straight on Co. J for three miles into town. You will cross over
I-94 doing this. Past I-94, there is a stop light at the top of the
hill at Bluemound Rd. (Co. JJ). The next Light is Northview Rd. (Co.
FT). The next light is Moreland Blvd. After this light, go
straight down the hill.

The parade will start where the

Like any driving directions/map, you should always
do a reality check and make sure the road still exists, watch out for construction,
and follow all traffic safety precautions. This is only to be used as an
aid in planning.
