The long and winding road...

Today was a tortuous travel day.  After having a lovely breakfast with Allison at Nina's, we said good-by to charming St. Paul and began our incredibly long journey back east - today we made it to near Wheaton, Illinois.  We left at 9:40 and arrived at our hotel at 4:30ish with lunch on the road.

Although we didn't run into any major back-ups, the trip was soooo long.  However, we discovered a trivia website that kept us perky for at least 2 out of the 7+!!! hours. I also taught Nancy how to play the alphabet game although she kept trying to include objects ( like GRASS) rather than actual words on signs.

Dinner was in Wheaton -- the meal was good, but the service not so good.  A quiet day on the road.
