Day 461, May 3, 2016;  Fremont, OH; Carol Stream, IL; Joliet, IL; Monee, IL

4 am.  Time to get up.  Need to get a bit of fuel while its $2.15.  It was 2.73 in Pennsylvania so we didn’t get any there.   Ridiculous!  

4:30 am. I can’t hold my eyes open so going off to bed.  Sorry Greg! 

7 am.  Stopping in Howe, Indiana for a break and a bit of breakfast for Greg.   Still have 186 miles to go.  

Planting time in Indiana. 

10:30 am. Made it to first stop.  Peacock Engineering.   Not sure what they want with 25,000 pounds of Land O’Lakes butter and I didn’t ask.    We got to watch the geese play while they unloaded us. One set has about 8 chicks. I tried to take a picture of them but they blended in to the grass too much.   One thing I learned.  Don’t yell “Oh Look” when the person driving is backing up.    I think I about scared Greg to death.   

12:15 pm.  Finished unloading part of the trailer.  Now headed to Joliet, IL for rest of unload.   

1:15 pm.  Got to Land O’Lakes to drop off rest of butter.   

Apparently we are missing some paperwork so sitting and waiting for them to straighten it out.  Fun fun fun. 

DG:  There is a department called customer service who handles these situations. Don’t know if they are just overwhelmed or out to lunch but it seems to be taking forever. 

Annie – Sitting and watching the natives run by.  In order to post this picture I had to promise Greg that if any half naked girls ran by he could post their picture.  Haha. 

DG:  Obviouly I have no such pictures to post. 

Paperwork bungle all straightened out. In the meantime I was offered two trips that we’re going to have us sitting for a whole day and finally got one to Texas. We’ll take it. 

Spending night in Monee, IL. We’ve been here many times. A shower and dinner, some paperwork, always paperwork, tv and sleep. Up early to pick up glass bottles to take to Texas. Have a great week everyone. Good night and God bless. 

Annie – Yay Texas!  It’s been what a week?   Oh well.  At least it will be warmer.  That will make Greg happy.   Me – Montana would be nice.  Haha.  

 Good night y’all.
