In the right time zone
Howdy all - well another productive day in the saddle. We got up as the sun was rising and put all of our layers on - a nippy 39 deg. - and headed into the sun once again. We took rt 50 till Rt 275 around Cincinnati and then off on Rt 3 & 22 into Wilmington Ohio. Rt 50 through Indiana was aglow with a good amount of fall colors coming through. Some of the roads through the mountains were just wonderful...lots of twisties and leaves twirling around - just breathtaking ahhh this is why we ride!!! It seemed as if there were a lot more construction sites along this route than when we traveled West on it - it sure did seem like it took a long time to travel even for us seasoned old riders - ouch my aching back, neck, hands, etc. etc. haha Then when we were just miles from the hotel the road seemed to stop dead......when in doubt do a Thompson U-turn and check the map. The Big Dog found a route that within 15 minutes we were right where we wanted to be - what a GUY!!! Anyway come to find out Sarah Palin is speaking in this town - go figure.....maybe since I didn't see the whole debate thing I could ask her a few questions haha!!! On the positive side - if all goes well we are thinking that by Sunday night we could be home - 7,065 miles traveled, approximately 809 miles left, and have been on the road for 37 days today - pretty cool huh???? Getting sore Flame and hanging tough Big Dog
