So in lieu of the weather yesterday I didn't get as far as I was hoping to. I did end up going 700 something miles, but at the end of it was a motel with a hot tub. The water felt great and all I could think about was getting home, but because I didn't cover enough miles I was still looking at two nights in a motel before I got home. Fortunately Google Maps provided me with a pick me up.
I was looking for the route home when Google offered me an alternate route which added 200 miles to the trip, but had me going through St. Louis, Missouri and Louisville, Kentucky. So thats what I'm doing. It will take me on a completely different route and I wont be overlapping at all with my way out west. I'll be adding a few more states to my trip rather than just going home. I'll be spending two nights in motel and one night with my grandparents in Connecticut before I finally come home on Thursday.
Today I made it to St. Louis before I found the tail end of the storm and had to call it another early night, but fortunately I'm only 70 miles off schedule. Tomorrow I'm heading to the Louisville Slugger bat factory for a tour :) and then heading up towards Pennsylvania. The day after I get to go back to the Goose and get my favorite sandwich of all time back in Bethlehem.
I may not be posting again until I get home, but in the meantime here are a few pics of the salt flats and the great salt lake that I took a few days ago.
