On the weekend, someone asked me if we were leaving at the "crack of dawn". I answered, we're leaving at Ed's "crack of dawn" --- 8 am, well today it was 8:10. Ed is not a morning person so being on coherent and on the road just after 8 am is pretty impressive.

Today's drive went well. The border was a piece of cake, there were only 4 cars in front of us car. The boarder guard asked us where we were going then instead of asking questions he told us places to visit in Colorado.

After 1000 plus km and 11 hours on the road we arrived in Effingham Illinois.
