Anderson, Indiana

Yesterday ended up being an 800-mile day, putting me 100 miles ahead of the pace for getting to Colorado.

I also ended up changing my route home: instead of taking I-80 over to where Colorado juts into Nebraska, and then heading toward Denver, I veered south onto I-69 soon after crossing into Indiana, with the idea of staying at a pet-friendly Motel 6 in Anderson, and then joining up with I-70, which will eventually bring me to Colorado Springs and, eventually, home.

Shiloh's been a trouper, and it occurs to me that she's driven with me nearly 1/4 of the way around the planet. Right now, having just been fed her morning meal, she's begun to whimper about going outside. Time to go.

Cheers...

It's been a 900-mile day. I'm happy I didn't try for Colorado Springs, which is about 220 miles distant. As it is, home is only about 460 miles away, which will be a walk in the park after the past couple of days.

Cheers...
