~~~I was having a fantastic drive around and away from Chicago earlier this morning and I couldn't figure out why I didn't come across any toll roads. I did remember several while going into the the city.

Then it hit me...I didn't follow the directions given my by my darling GPS as I call her and I was heading south and onto Memphis...yeks! I was ready to continue my adventure by not that far south...not today. Any way I was able to make the correction and darling GPS isn't speaking to me any more...I turned her off.

I knew that I had to head east so I spotted Fort Wayne Ind. The highway was two lanes for some time then it broke into 4 and what a beautiful roadway and not much "dancing" with trucks either.

I went over the Wabash river twice and past Kokomo...yup you guessed it the singing began...thank you Perry Como and I don't know who wrote "The Wabash Cannonball" but I do remember Johnny and June Carter Cash sang it.

I also spotted at a very busy intersection an Amish family in their buggy.

I'll be heading home tomorrow...I think...this has been a wonderful trip.

Enjoy the pix...

till next time....
