Go'in my way?

I'm planning my route to the National Rally in Maggie Valley NC this summer. Originally I was going to take some extra time and drop down from Langley, BC, Can., to Chandler AZ. and travel with C.J.. After some thought I have decided to plan a different route. I am tentatively heading out around June 4th or 5th. I don't want the days to be too harsh but I will have to push a little to make my arrival on time. I have allowed a day or so for some leeway in case there is an issue of some kind, and I need or want an extra day for something.
My first stop will be Spokane WA,
Day two's stop will be Great Falls MT.,
Day three's finish will be Lindsay MT
Day four Fargo ND
Day five will find me stopping in Madison WI
Day six?...Indianapolis IN
The seventh evening should find me resting in the Maggie Valley Inn

This is a rough plan and is open to change. I'm going to guess that I'll average about 400 Mi. per day. Some more, and some less. If anyone is on route and planning to attend the rally let me know and maybe we can hook up for the ride. AND ! if some see's something I might be cautious about or perhaps a road I shouldn't miss, let me know. I am open to change for sure. I hope to have three weeks to get there and rtn. home, so I have a bit of time.
Weather is a concern at that time of year, of course. So if there's a chance or I'm likely to run into snow, I'd appreciate being told. It might be an idea to take a more southern route to insure better weather, but I don't know because I haven't been this route before.

Again, any help is appreciated.
