The goal today was to get to Mom's place. That didn't happen. It was all Interstate Highway and good speed for the most part but I just cannot drive as long as I used to.
Central Illinois is super flat and also super green this time of year. I never encountered any real rain but it was overcast (good driving condition) and off-an-on sprinkles. There were several road construction zones with posted speeds of 55 but most were short.
There a lots of 18 wheelers on the highway. At some times it seemed it was just me and a hundred truckers. The economy must be doing better if all this trucking is happening.

| Indiana welcome center. |
Standing water on all the fields while on the news the drought and fires in California.

| Ohio's welcome center. Very depressing looking building but it was an earth-bermed structure so eco-friendly. |

| The Ohio town of Cambridge. |
Made as far as eastern Ohio. Stayed the night in Cambridge where they have re-done their downtown. It is very lovely.
