Day two is finally done. I set out today and finished up Ohio, followed by driving straight through Indiana.  I’ve been driving on a lot of toll roads, but nothing has matched Illinois for the amount of times they made me stop.  It had to be near double digits, and most of them were for only $.80 or so.  I saw Chicago up close, saw some neat factories, and got stuck in traffic.  After having fun in Illinois, I made my way into Wisconsin which starts the middle section of my trip filled with absolute nothingness.  You can see in the pictures how it looked. Although there were a few rock outcroppings which made me feel like I was playing Oregon Trail.

My first day.  It was cold, windy, and raining the whole time. I rode through Pennsylvania coal country, up and down some winding roads and finished my day driving in northern Ohio. Luckily it brightened up a bit before the day was done.

T-1 Day.  My box arriving on the flatbed, and an after shot of what it ended up looking like with all of my things packed securely inside.

Day One and Two Completed

I’m at the end of day 2 of 6 on my journey across the United States.  I wasn’t able to upload anything last night, as the hotel internet in Toledo Ohio was too slow to work at all. Luckily tonight, I’m in sleepy Tomah Wisconsin, and there’s practically nobody else in this hotel to slow me down.  A few of pictures will follow.

Two Months to Go is Two Months Too Many

I created this blog so I could keep a record of my adventure.  In two months I will be driving cross country from Washington D.C. to Seattle so I can be with the girl of my dreams.  I’m not leaving for two months, but starting this blog helps make it feel more real.  I hope to write about the things I see, and the trials of moving cross-country.  I’m going to take a lot of photos of the interesting things I see on the way and once I arrive.
