Movin' right along in search of good times and good news

After spending last week in Connecticut finishing up loose ends (if he has time, maybe Justin can inform you about the wonders of the CT DMV) we started our road trip to Oregon yesterday.

Due to some time restraints we are keeping our route pretty direct, and following I-90 the entire way. Which means we left Hartford and headed up to Albany, then Buffalo and spent the first night just across the border in Pennsylvania near Erie. The most interesting part was being stuck in a hail storm, with hail the size of ping-pong balls bouncing off the car. All we could do was pull over and try not to wince everytime one struck the car. Turns out we have some dents on the hood and roof that we need to figure out what we are going to do.

This morning we cut across the top of PA, travelled thru Ohio (seeing Cleveland and Toledo from the road), drove along the top border of Indiana, thru Chicago and we just entered Wisconsin and are headed toward Madison. So that makes it 3 new states for Michelle, and 1 for Justin.

We are ending the night in Wisconsin Dells, which it turns out is a hotspot for water parks, they are everywhere. Another good thing about Wisconsin- cheese, we just may have to make a grocery run before we leave the state.
