Westward!

So we were up around 5:30am this morning, though we barely slept a wink. Camp was packed up and we left the strange campground at around 6:30. After grabbing bagels at Dunkin' Donuts we got back on the road. We hopped onto interstate 90 and headed west. This was the longer day. The weather went from being really gray, to rainy, to sunny, and back to rain...wait no it was a torrential down-pour.
Let's backpedal a little bit...
Before the aforementioned down-pour we got into Illinois..... just barely. We rolled off of 90 and got to a gas station (I am sure) in just the nick of time. After filling up we headed back onto the highway and towards Chicago. Now I don't have any problem driving in cities, but I got instruction from my grandfather to take 90 and that would put me on I-57, but there was no signs for 57 (at least not that Auri or I noticed). So we ended up on the other side of Chicago in the wrong place. So after a discussion with my uncle on the phone and dealing with the rush hour traffic of the greater Chicago area, we were headed to my birthplace: Kankakee, Illinois. (please...don't pronounce the s)
It was on route 57 that we both finished the first book of the hitchhiker's guide and met that down-pour I spoke of.
after one more wrong turn....we made it to my grandparents house where we showered and were fed some delicious italian beef, potato salad and olive salad.
tomorrow morning
biscuts and gravy....grandpa Harmon style :)
