Final Day of traveling to Michigan

No we aren't quite home yet but within a hour we will pull into the brothers farm. When we got to the turn off for tonight's stay it wasn't even noon yet so we made the decision to keep on going. We will finish up our last travel day with 475 miles, not the best but really wanted to get through the Chicago area.

I80 around Chicago was a pain. But than we new it would be. There was construction near Peru IN that had us backed up for miles. I away's want Larry to slow down but not 10mph for miles. Finally got out of there and into Michigan. When we got near Benton Harbor it was a mess. Three lanes of traffic needing to go down to one and idiots that just had to go right up to the end which of couse messes the rest of us up. It took close to 45 minutes to go five miles. Oh to have that 10mph speed back.

Than when we got to Battle Creek we had this weird looking stuff coming down on us. And it was coming in sheets. We were pretty sure it was this thing called rain but since we haven't seen any of that since last Nov. we just aren't sure.

So this wraps up our trip home. We left Mission Tx six days ago and have traveled 1990 miles.
Time now to see the families and do some Major GrandKids spoiling.

Till next time....................................
