Have arrived safely at the Terra Haute KOA in Indiana. Long day - up at 1 am, on the road at 2:15 am. 14 hours of driving. Halfway through Ohio we came upon rain and it hasn't stopped yet. We looked at the forecast and saw that the rain is supposed to continue throughout the night, with some heavy flooding possible tonight. Called ahead and upgraded to a cabin. Excellent choice! Ate dinner. Showered. Ready to crash for the night.
On to Oakley, KS tomorrow. Forecast is 98 degrees and full sun. Woohoo! Plan is to be up at 6 am. On the road at 7 am. 9 hours of driving, but a one hour time zone difference in our favor.
The Russells are still on the road. They are about 3 hours behind us, not leaving home until 5:30 am. Then they took in the sights in Syracuse at a diner for breakfast. Last we heard they are on I-70 in Indiana. They are going past us though into Missouri, stopping just shy of St. Louis. We think they should be at their hotel around 9 or 10 tonight. The drive in the rain I'm sure is stinking!
Another anniversary spent traveling! Last year we were so happy to have made it to the Jaguar Inn safely. This year we're happy to have made it to (and be dry in) Indiana.
Looking forward to another day tomorrow!
The Russell's have arrived!! Driving in the rain definitely slowed down the trip. On to Denver tomorrow!!
