Cross-country trip - important dates

I finally got around to re-planning my cross-country trip, based on the date I want to meet up with my parents in Asheville, NC. I'll post more of my route and what I'll be doing on each day here soon (trust me, I have it planned out in meticulous detail), but here's the important dates... when people might want to meet up with me:

• Mon 5/1 - Leave Portland, head down coast, through Redwoods
• Wed 5/4 - Hike in Yosemite, stay in Bishop, CA that night
• Thu 5/5 - Hike Death Valley, stay in Vegas that night
• Fri 5/6 - Sightseeing at Hoover Dam and Grand Canyon, stay in Williams, AZ
• Mon 5/9 - Meet up with parents in Asheville, NC around lunchtime
• Thu 5/12 - Arrive in DC area (possibly a day sooner or a day later depending on what parents want to do -- hiking in Appalachians vs. sightseeing in DC)
• Sun 5/15 - Drive from DC to NYC
• Wed 5/18 - Drive from NYC to Boston
• Fri 5/20 - Drive from Boston to Chicago, IL, arrive late at night (14 hr drive)
