Illinois Here We Come

We are all fixed and functional again thanks to the folks at Stewart Service and we have a new microwave/convection oven thanks to Charger Enterprises. If you are on the road and need assistance we can't say enought about these two businesses. They were great.

We are on our way to Kankakee, Illinois. This is the closest campground to Ken's sister Blanche who lives in Chicago. We had planned to stay at the casino RV park in Joliet, but they had a big fire and weren't opening until next week (of course!). This was the first Interstate (80/90) we have been on since we left home.It was raining hard and we had tractor trailer trucks on both sides and in front of us. It was hard to see and of course it was rush hour. Finally we got off I80 west and onto Rte 57 S and we finally got to our campsite. Now we know why we love the back roads so much.

The campground is OK and funny thing is the coach across from us was at the same campground we were in Elkhart last night. They are from New Jersey on their way to Montana. We talked for a while and then we headed inside.

Looking forward to seeing Blanche tomorrow!
