It's amazing how 2 and a half hours and 134 miles can get rid of an itchy tire condition!! ;-) Yep, it was gone right after we left Rantoul at about 10:00.
There wasn't a whole lot for Jim and Linda to do before we left. Just put the last stuff away inside of me and unhook my electric cord and put it away. Then it was h and h with Paul and Louise and we were finally on our way. :-)
From Rantoul, we headed South on US 45 until we got to I-74, down by Urbana. Then we headed East on 74 and took it all the way to Indianapolis, where we tuned South on I-465. There was a lot of construction on 465, and a few spots on 74.
465 then brought us down to the South side of the city and to the Lake Haven RV Park.
The Lake Haven RV Park is nothing special. In fact in my opinion, it's way over priced, but it's the closest park to Linda's cousin's house so it's a convenient place for us to stay.
Once I got settled in and Jim and Linda both took little naps, they took CLT and headed over to Mike and Sandy's house for a visit.
It had been about an year since we had been here, so everyone had a lot to catch up on, so they all sat around the kitchen table and talked and talked. :-)
After they had talked for awhile, everyone started getting hungry, so they took Mike's car and went to a Bob Evans Restaurant for dinner. Then they came back to the house and talked some more!!:-)
It was about 9:30 by the time CLT brought Jim and Linda back here to the CG. Then they watched TV and relaxed until bedtime.
Jim and Linda both said that it was really good to see Mike and Sandy again. For years, Linda had not seen Mike and had almost lost contact with him. If it hadn't been for this full-timing lifestyle, she probably wouldn't have been able to contact him and renew their relationship.
Oh, in response to the 2 comments I received on yesterdays blog,
Judy, sorry to hear about your problems. We just don't do well sitting around for long periods of time. All of our seals dry out and things corrode when we're not being used.
Jenny, I'm sorry but we won't be going through your area this fall. If you're going to the RV Dreams Rally next spring, Jim and Linda will see you there.
Did you know that David Letterman, host of television's "Late Show with David Letterman," was born April 12, 1947, in Indianapolis?
