Snaps from the road

Goal achieved today: Elkhart, Indiana. We left the house at 7:40 a.m. and pulled into the Ramada Inn at 7:20 p.m. The dogs and cats are just amazing travelers, and other than Bella slipping her collar two different times at two different rest areas and causing me heart failure, all has been good. She is the problem child.

We don’t usually admit to having cats when we check in. Our two cats are so good we just don’t feel we need to tell them. We cover the beds with sheets and our impact is minimal. At least we like to think so.

This Ramada is a great place. They take pets, have a great dog walking area, and there is a Bennigan’s Restaurant on the premises. No need to leave the dogs unattended in the room. Just walk to it and order. We always eat in with the crew in tow, and sometimes order Dominos Pizza since they deliver.

Here are a few road shot from today. I should have done more.

And I few more miles down the road. I whipped out the camera at the last moment, so it’s a bit blurred. Hey, we were on the move!

And, what is with this pic halfway through Pennsylvania? I don’t think so folks! We just left there!

Well, it’s taken me about 45 minutes that could have been better spent just to upload all this nonsense you have just slogged through, and I know it’s not much. But it’s getting late, the dogs need to be taken outside for final pees and eBay is curled up on my pillow. She needs to move.

So, until tomorrow night. We have the rest of Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and on in to as much of the big ole state of Nebraska that we can handle. Onward!

About

Welcome, I'm Lynne. You know me better as a 'new' Jersey Girl. But now I've moved once again, this time to North Carolina. Here I write about my thoughts, good food, and of course, dogs.
