Day 2 - Mile 690 - mile 1560






Well, we set off from Dayton at 7h30 or so. Made it to Effingham by 12h15, and moved ahead one hour, so we were 11h15 local time and met up with our motley crew from the rest of the midwest. Headed off circa noon local time after the requisite photo op (from the back of a truck). Pushed it to past Tulsa, and just outside of Oklahoma City. Tired but happy. Beers and pizza in the parking lot as restaurants were closed upon arrival late at night. Pics will follow once we stop this evening as was too tired to post them and organize last night. Sad to hear about Paul Newman's death. Great actor and racer. May he rest in peace.
edit --- time to add some pics ... finally a bit of rest from all this fun ;-) By the way, you can tell that my brother Aidan, has a fetish for billboards. He just loves em! Finds them hilarious!
