Well, we arrived in the Land of Lincoln, even though it seemed to take forever. Got away late for a variety of reasons, and ended up spending our first night in Ardmore, Oklahoma. As far as Oklahoma goes, it wasn't a bad spot, but I had really wanted to be farther along when we stopped. We had to stop for a late breakfast at a Waffle House(It's a family thing) in Norman, and didn't make it to Peoria until around 10pm.
Once we arrived, the grand party was on. It seemed that every kid and parent had a drippy nose or nasty sounding cough. By Tuesday, Boppa had come down with the crud, and didn't get out of the house on Wednesday. Nonna was dispatched to the local Wally World for a variety-pack of drugs to stave off the worst of the symptoms(She really does take care of me).
Too quickly, it is time to start for home. Tomorrow we embark on our return journey, trying to find a new and different route across middle America.

Hope you had a wonderful trip! We had to eat at a Waffle House too when we were in DC.
