Home from Chicago

I went without any plans realy, kind of a last minute trip. Mere realy was sick, I think she was using tissue by the box. The plan was to just hang out with Mere for a few days & that's what I did. So I'm back home & already board so your going to get all the details.

The drive down was going to be simple, I've got onstar. For highway driving it's great. As long as it takes a good route. I found out it doesn't. It took me off I94 & put me on a toll road through Indiana with a lot of constrution going on. The tolls started at 50 cents, than $1.50, than $3.00. I started thinking I was going to spend all my cash paying tolls.

But all of a sudden I was in Chicago at least according to the signs. Soon I could see the skyline off in the distance & traffic was getting heavier. Evan at that distance you could see the sears tower. The route I took through downtown would have been real nice if it wasn't bumper to bumper. Driving in Chicago is a lot different than in Detroit. In Chicago to change lanes you don't turn on your blinker & ease over, no, you dart over not caring if you cut off the guy in the other lane. So when my onstar said to ease to the left ahead, well, when in rome, I heard a few horns but got to where I needed to be. As I said onstar doesn't pick the easiest route & it's not real exact about where the turns are. But I did make it to the motel & got checked in.

More later.
