Saturday 9:26pm
After a much needed night of sleep in various locations throughout the church, we awoke to a delightful breakfast of pancakes and fresh fruit. Ensuing our breakfast, we loaded the trailer with our luggage and embarked on our expedition to Chicago.
The first great obstacle we overcame was the narrowing of 94 to a mere one lane. It took us nearly an hour to pass through Woodbury, but morale remained high throughout. We continued through Wisconsin, the land of cows, horizontal stoplights, and Menards. Finally at about 5:00, we crossed the border into Illinois. At about 7:00 this evening, we arrived at the Quality Inn. Through a series of mistakes made by the hotel, Josh, Anthony, and I happened to walk in on an occupied room. Fortunately, Gary, the occupant of the room, was not in the there at the time and the mistake was quickly fixed. After a long day of sitting in the car, we needed a break, so our room decided to watch Jurassic Park III, which Anthony classifies as "One of the top ten worst movies of all time". I hope you enjoyed this short summation describing the intensity of traveling. Tomorrow we will be sleeping in until at least 4:00 AM, when will enthusiastically wake up and saunter over to the airport. To be continued.....by a different writer
