Truckin'

Well, we didn't see the "World's Biggest" anything today...too busy DRIVING! We did about 460 miles after getting a late-ish start. We did a quick tour of downtown Joliet, Illinois but there wasn't much to see. Since Interstate 80/90 in Indiana and Ohio are toll roads, it's kind of hard to get on and off, and it's hard to find anything really interesting near the road.

We did take a quick detour into Sturgis, Michigan to see Great- Great Grandma Emma Ginther's house




and took a short walk/drive through downtown Sturgis




then lunch at the Sturgis Dairy Queen



We spent the rest of the day driving through Indiana, Ohio and then on in to Pennsylvania. We hit our first bad weather in Ohio (heavy rain), but made it through to fight on another day.

Tomorrow it's off to Scranton, hopefully to see Sr. Lenore and the Dunder Mifflin Company (Rachel wants to drop off her resume there).
