Left Lebanon, Indiana, on Thursday, on was rained on all day. Just love driving in the rain. Fortunately, it was not a downpour.
Took I-65 northwest with the intention of looking for a route west to Illinois before I hit the big mass of sprawl and traffic by US-30, the old Lincoln Highway. Next time through, I will take Indiana Hwy 10 at Roselawn over to Illinois. As it was, I stayed on I-65 to Lowell and ended up taking US-41 to US-30 as there weren't any good roads going west.
At least there was a White Castle at the intersection of those two roads so got a taste. Gads, White Castles went up 3 cents to 55 cents because of this inflation that is not happening.
FUN AND GAMES IN CHICAGOLAND
Planned on taking the Lincoln Highway to Joliet, but missed a turn somewhere. Ended up taking Il-394 to US-6 and going west. I don't suggest this. It was traffic and stoplights the whole way. I went under one big underpass where the garbage was all over the place and the potholes hadtheir own potholes.
Took Il-7 to Lockport and eventually caught up with US-30 again to my Il-47 Chicago by-pass.
All along, I got to see gas prices rise significantly once in Chicagoland. Usually it was $3.50 to $3.60!!! Thanks Big Oil GRBs.
All in All, a Pretty Miserable Day of Driving.
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
