http://www.pioneerpowershow.com/swapmeet.html found with Alta-Vista searching for Le Seuer Power Show. Swap meet begins 8 days from now.
Road map at: http://www.pioneerpowershow.com/lodging.html I've driven to it from Montgomery, Le Center, and Faribault. I've left more than once through Le Seuer. All good roads. But check the Minnesota road conditions web page (linked from the Iowa Road conditions web page) for roads and bridges under water or being worked on.
If I don't want to take interstate (vintage camper), I take US 69 out of Iowa and get on MN 13 at Albert Lea (hard not to do) and take it to Montgomery, then #26 west to the swap meet or power show. If just with car, I head west from the north Faribault exit of I-35 and jog occasionally according to the map.

We leave PA 6 days from now. Taking 80 W, then 94 up to WI/MN.
I'll be there Friday and Saturday until early afternoon.
Have stuff for JW, Brad Grams, GBACBFan, Bill Deppe, have to figure out when/where to meet up. I'll have a golf cart w/ a box on the back, so I can lug stuff around.
If anybody buys Bill PSEMI's plow bottoms, I'll bring those too.

Hey Glenn, my brother Darrell may have a rather large item to go back to PA for Fred Wilke. It's a 20-35 hood and I believe he was wondering if it could catch a ride back with you, so it's at least in the same state as it needs to be.

94 is a ways north, 90 a ways south, but no big cities along 90 or I-35 in southern Minnesota.

Glenn, I will be there with Mike Noonan (mnoonan-NEWI) all day Friday and Saturday. Mike will be set up selling the awsome steps he makes for various tractors that he has advertised on this site.
We will have a small tractor on the grounds as well, so getting together shouldn't be a problem. I'll PM you with my cell number, and if you would return yours that will be great.

Brad, not a problem, there should be room on the trailer for it. We can drop it at Fred's, as that's our last stop before heading to the showers on Monday. It ought to be about 6 miles from Fred Wilkes then. Should be a lot closer than MN! :>)

Gerald,
we have to go north to Dale Schafers at some point to get my cultivator, and Fred's fridge. Then we will come back southwest to LeSueur.
You are right though, you go one interstate north, one to the south. I suppose if there was a 92 in that area of the country, it would run smack through LeSueur!

there is a box at Fred to go to Gary Biewer at Le Seuer??

Dave,
Unless the box can make it to my place by Monday the 25th, it won't make the truck. I picked up at Fred's last week, and am not able to put the 5 or so hrs in to go down and back before Tues. I am scrambling to get ready for the trip as it is! LOL

I see with the multitude of misspellings of this town name, when entering the destination into your GPS make sure and use Le Sueur.
Le Seuer will take you to Cape Town South Africa.
Le Sewer may take you somewhere that doesn't smell nice.
Who knows where the other spellings will take you :-)

I planned on being there, but my loving wife has other ideas. Instead we get to go to Batavia IL to see my sister. This was planned a year ago, darn it!! Oh well, hoping for Hutchinson in July!! If she doesn't like that, she can stay home...
