WOW, a "mini" due in MKE. Certainly ORD North would hint at MKE being the home base, so count Mr. ORD North & Mrs. in. As MKE-MR calls out, your the guest in the area and you make the call. My "neck of the woods" is the northern Milwaukee/Ozaukee County area and I think much would depend on your lodging location and time frame. Wonderful B&B in Cedarburg, alas no point earning, but does beat the heck out of "another night in a cookie cutter hotel room."
