Trip Report: Day 2 of 11

My slow move West continues. Greetings from Elkhart, Indiana. I really could have made it to Oshkosh today, but I like the slow pace of this, and it's given me time to catch up on email for work since there's so much activity around this show still -- final proofreading, mistakes, changes of plans, etc.

So I started in Pennsylvania, drove across Ohio...

Paid to get myself out of Ohio:

Passed Fremont, Indiana, which claims to be the "fireworks capital of the US"...

Stopped for the day in Elkhart, Indiana where I have a room with two queen beds....this picture is confusing since there are mirrors at the head of the beds so you see the reflection from the other side of the room...

and a window seat....

Not exactly an award winning view -- you can see I'm on the ground floor...

with a microwave, refrigerator, closet, iron, ironing board, coffee maker, ice bucket, flat screen tv -- and a black plastic ashtray which I haven't seen in years. This is a non-smoking room.

tomorrow, it's on to Oshkosh....
