Sunrise as we entered the State of Illinois.

We headed across I-64 to I-57 and then headed south  I-24 then we stayed on 1-24, until we got to Chattanooga Tn. where we got on I-75 and headed south into Georgia, We are at the Leasure RV park, a very small park in Adairsville Ga. It is clean and a Passport America park, so for $15 we are spending the night without unhitching, we should be at Paul & Helen’s tomorrow afternoon sometime.

              Going into Kentucky from Illinois.

We had a long travel day so we will be calling it quits early tonight. Five states in one day, tomorrow it will just be the rest of Georgia, and then Florida.

It really was a relaxing drive although we put some miles on, we will have less to do tomorrow.

Be safe out there. Sam & Donna…..

  6. You're off, off and away.

    I found something that interested me today. I looked up our visit to Osage Beach, MO in 2004. I was surprised to see that we must have driven right by Dardenne Prairie so now we know where you live.

    We went to the Indianopolis Race Track then stayed at Fayette, Indiana for a couple of nights. From there we drove west and stopped at Boonville MO before going to Lake of the Osarks for a 3 day break from driving. I was checking on Mapquest and put Dardenne Prairie in just for fun. We loved driving through Missouri. Beautiful farming country.

    Blessings
