You know you're back in the Midwest when....

You know you're back in the Midwest when....

1.  There's actually water in the river.

2.  You hit pot hole city.

3.  The grass is green.

4.  There are more deciduous trees than conifers.

5.  You listen to the weather forecast before deciding what to wear.

6.  There are more orange barrels in one state than you saw in the last 6 combined.

7.  You can buy pop, not soda.

We stayed at Camp Lakewood RV Park in Effingham, IL last night.  It was very nice.  Free WI-FI and cable, nice wide sites, and a campfire pit!  YAY!


There was a beautiful, small lake and you can see some color just beginning.



We left this morning to drive to Indy to have a visit with my family.  They are coming out to the RV park tonight to visit with us.

There is another fella from my home town that is going across on his motorcycle. He has also been posting pics for us. I love our country. It is so full of beautiful places. We are very lucky to be here. Love you guys. HOpe to see you in the near future. xo
