Well, sort of across the country. I traveled through about seven states: Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa, Illiniois, Indiana, and Michigan.
I set out one morning in my beautiful Subaru Impreza.
I drove and drove and drove some more until I got to the great state of Wyoming. This was the place I was looking forward to the least. There just isn't much there. However, every once in a while I would see an awesome-looking rock. . . . And then I would pass it.
In the photo below, you can see wind mills on the hill off in the distance. I did enjoy that part.
I then drove and drove and drove some more until I got to Nebraska. There isn't a lot in Nebraska either. But at least the speed limit was 75 most of the way.
After a good rest in North Platte, Nebraska, in a funny smelling hotel, I drove and drove and drove some more until I got to Iowa. This place had some interesting crevices in the land. Can't really see it in the photo below, tough.
I kept driving and drove and drove and drove some more, occasionally stopping for gas or to use the restroom, until I made it to Illinois. Did you know that when you first get to Illinois, you don't see much. It is mostly farm country. I didn't see much city until my last day of driving, after spending the night in a more up-scale hotel that still smelled funny. I think it's because of the smoking. I hate the lingering smell of tobacco.
And then I drove and drove and drove some more until I passed Indiana in the blink of an eye and drove into Michigan. This picture is a little blurry, probably because it was raining.
So, that is where I am. And that is the great adventure I went on this last week. I made it safely to Michigan and to a warm bed that did not smell funny.
Although, I should point out that I did stay in non-smoking rooms, but the lobby sure did smell yucky.
So, now I am enjoying the fresh, humid Michigan air and waiting for some work from the company I have contracted with. La la la la la. (Twiddle thumbs.)
