Alaska, one more time

Ann Arbor, MI
April 16

1,000 miles behind us and, from looking at road signs, we've nearly been around the world. Places like London, Paris, Rome have all flown past...of course it was the interstate and we were rolling from our Ormond Beach home to see friends in Michigan. Two days of being blown around on the interstate makes a day off just to stroll around Ann Arbor very worth while. And then it's on toward Wisconsin, North Dakota, Canada and on and on.
We've been honing our wildlife spotting skills by picking out gas prices on station signs just off the interstate...at 60+ miles per hour. We started out in shorts and by the time we got to Atlanta it was cool enough for jeans not to mention the 30mph winds. We actually changed the route of the early part of the trip because of the wind/rain/thunderstorms/hail which would have made driving on our initial route to/thru the Carolinas pretty nasty.
There aren't too many adventures in the Heartland, but we're looking.
