Holy Toledo! (almost)


As of writing: 41.33149N, 82.66320W at 667.29ft at 9:55am (Eastern Time)
Thanks to Stef's amazing nocturnal driving last night, we managed to reach cleveland around 1:42am. We Stayed at Glidden House Inn near CWRU campus. After a tasty breakfast this morning we grabbed what would probably be the last available Dunkin Donuts coffee and Doughnuts from a drive through and got back on (sigh) I-90. The sigh is due to road construction being "attempted" from basically the PA border to Indiana. Many places don't actually have any construction going on, just barrels up. We plowed through 2 storms yesterday. Today's outlook is a bit less predictable, as the heat and the humidity of the plains can cause storms to pop up, and then just as quickly disappear. Next stop is a restaurant in Indiana where they make their own root beer (!)

Leaving Ohio




Cindy and Chris' house on the west side of Cleveland was wonderful, and they were both outstanding hosts: extremely patient with Stef and I being groggy and snuffly, and generous with their food and beer. Their house was also beautiful and comfortable. Definately a good time was had. Once again we are outrunning storms which are now hammering Toledo, Ohio.
