Well, the long awaited trip began this morning about 8:15 when we pulled away from my drive.
Very nice first day. Relatively uneventful other than a very strange billboard we saw in Kentucky. I'm not lying.....it said: "Talk to your cat about sex." That was all it said. No organization name, no other advertising message. Needless to say, we got a good laugh over that.
Ran into quite a bit of rain, but nothing bad. It really was a beautiful drive. Missed our turn off onto Rte. 9 to head up to Cincinnati, but figured out another way....using...yes...an old fashioned PAPER MAP!!!! Anyway, we were glad we missed the turn because on this other route, we saw a really neat old covered bridge that led to a beautiful little white church. Pictures below.
We are now hunkered down about 20 minutes into Indiana. Wine has been poured and PJs on. What can I say....live is good. Tomorrow's goal is Iowa City, Iowa!!! We shall see.
Becky and I did keep saying "I can't believe we are really going to California!!" But....yes....we REALLY are!! Can't wait to see the adventures ahead of us!!
5 States today!! Unfortunately, we missed the signs for Ohio and Indiana! We were too busy looking at other stuff!!
Below is our only Ohio pictures. We weren't in Ohio very long!!
