Now We're Rolling Down the Highway

Finally we are on the road to meeting our friends for our 3rd annual "Between Harvests Adventure". I just came up with that name.  We traveled through Kentucky and crossed the new bridge into Indiana for our first time. I was told we'll get a toll bill in the mail. We saw the signs that it was a toll bridge, but there wasn't a toll booth anywhere.  We  drove as far a Mahomet, IL where we stopped about supper time at Tin Cup RV Park for the night.  Tin Cup is convenient and with nice pull-thru sites at the front of the park. We were tired after the long day we had, so bedtime was early. We were sleeping soundly, when just before midnight the wind woke us. It sounded like it would blow the slide awnings off and into Kansas. The coach was rocking in the gusts. We startled and wide awake reaching for cell phones to find the weather radar or alerts. Something to find out what in the world was going on.

Luckily, we were parked right at the southern most point of a severe thunderstorm and just a few minutes of the howling wind led to only a brief rain shower. We were back in dreamland right away, with phones at our bedside.

At morning light we were up and on the road in search of a Cracker Barrel. After breakfast the drive continued on through Iowa into Wisconsin. We checked in at Rustic Barn RV Campground where we found friendly folks eager to chat and share information about things to do, places to eat and shop while there. Just after we checked in Vicki and Terry arrived. We chose one of the four famous Wisconsin supper clubs recommended to us for the award winning prime rib dinner.
