Car Three- Makin' Tracks!

Been awhile since we've checked in, huh? Crossed many many miles since then, and here's some to share.


After Niagara, we headed out through the fields of Pennsylvania and Ohio, making heavy tracks through alot of highways...
Not much to see but cut through Cleveland:









Home of the Cleveland Indians-cool you could see the stadium right from the highway!




And saw one of the most beautiful sunsets I've ever seen on the highways of Ohio...















Finished that evening with a long drive across Indiana (no prairie shots- honestly not so much to see) and camped in Michigan.

Morning saw us rolling through Chicago, though we took the roads around so as to avoid the madness.









Then headed through the countryside of Illinois and into Iowa. Flat. Flat. Flat. Check it out, although I can sum it up in one word:




Corn. They call it the heartland of America, the breadbasket as it were. Goodness me I can see why. I have to say, I loved it. Almost felt like I was back in Vermont, but just corn and turbines and fields as far as the eye could see.








But before you write off Iowa as completely boring, I must say Iowa gets its own post...for small slow corn country there's a lot there. A special field...a house fit for kings...stay tuned for Iowa's very own post. Coming soon...
