Up at 4:30 to go back to Tyson. Luckily our load was ready and we were able to get on the road fairly quickly. Bright clear sunny day. Little chilly still but not bad. Now we head to Canton, Ohio, with our load of 43,000 pounds of shredded pork. Anybody got any barbecue sauce? We could have a big party.
We got to go through the northern part of Iowa today, right along the border of Wisconsin. Totally different scenery up there than parts we had been through before. There were hills and rolling plains instead of just flat.
We also went through Galena, Illinois. It looked like an old Victorian/western town. The downtown looked to have all of its original buildings from the 1800’s. It sits up on a hill to so we definitely put this down as a place we would like to visit some time when we are in the car.

We only got about 350 miles today before time ran out. We are at a Pilot south of Gary, Indiana. The plan is to get up at the crack of dawn (no surprise there) and head to our appointment hopefully by 8 am. Its going to be cutting it close and I really am not sure we will be there on time as there is construction on I80 a few miles down the road. Hopefully that wont hold us up too long. Maybe since we are leaving early we can miss any traffic through there.
Going to find something to eat and then hit the hay. Hope to be in Ashland tomorrow night!! Goodnight, y’all.
