On the docket today was the drive from Harrisville, PA to Collinsville, IL. This was just a long highway trip across Ohio, Indiana, and into Illinois. The scenery, once you're out of the PA mountains is flat, flat, flat. Just for kicks, we counted the road kill today--47 from start to finish of the drive. (It's more interesting than looking for license plates with the added bit of interest of deciding what exactly the animal was before being hit: raccoon? skunk? fox? Deer are usually easy to distinguish-even if only half of it is left. Some furry mounds were completely indistinguishable.) An interesting set of billboards along the way in Ohio touted the RV business of a man with an unfortunate (I think) last name. Do you suppose he pronounces it the way it looks? Or maybe the French way: Rah-pair?
When we got to our hotel, we were pleasantly surprised to find that we each were going to be treated to our choice of 3 alcoholic beverages each, and hot foods. Very nice.
Tomorrow we will go to St. Louis and visit the Arch and Basilica. St. Louis is only 15 minutes away.
