816 Miles later…
Stopped for the night in Rockford, IL (just west of Chicago). Very late. Too sleepy to compose any sort of elegant prose and not much to report anyway… just driving, driving, driving. Toward the end, went through about 25 minutes of nasty-butt storm. Drove by Comiskey Park shortly after the Yankees finished kicking white sock butt. Just a short five hours tomorrow morning and we will arrive at Midwest Chez Hayducsko.
