Tuesday, August 14, 2012

Yesterday, Jim had to take a client out to dinner and Gina went out to dinner with her friend Theresa.  Clara and Lindy went with Gina as well.  So, instead of waiting until 8:00 P.M. to leave Cincinnati, we left at 6:30 P.M.  We did pretty well until we were half way and it started raining pretty hard.  Chicago at 11:00 P.M. in the rain was not fun at all.  We took the toll roads which seemed counterproductive because every so many miles, you had to stop to pay more tolls.  We got back to the boat at Port Washington Marina in Wisconsin at 1:00 A.M. this morning.  We unloaded the car and put some water in the tank right away so we could get showers.  We slept until 8:00, went out for breakfast and then headed to the grocery store.  We needed just about everything.  It's been awhile since we've had access to a car.  Everything is put away and it feels good to just sit quietly and blog. 

The high temperature today was 79 degrees.  Last night it was 57 degrees when we arrived at 1:00.  It's nice to have the windows open and air the boat out.  We had so much fun at home.  We will miss you all until we get back again.  Here are a few more pictures from Mills Springs Battlefield.
