Today was a long day with a late start and Blue Jay 120 miles away. We stopped in Milton and took the factory tour at Blenko Glass. While signing the visitor book, Alesa noticed that the person signed in before us was from Ripley, NY so we tracked them down. They were relatively new to Ripley

We are in West Virginia about 30 miles west of Charleston. We went shopping at the Huntington Mall to beat the heat and we finally found the Fargo DVD. We have been looking for it since Minnesota, the day before we went to Fargo. We almost bought "We are Marshall" as well. They really love th

Today we crossed back into eastern time and settled across the Ohio River from Louisville. We did go to town and walked along the river and then back across the river to eat at Famous Dave's, a legendary pit bar-b-que place. I had ribs and Alesa had the catfish. We walked around Sam's Club aft

We crossed the Missouri River into Iowa and headed south to Kansas City. I caught a bug from Normie and am a little under the weather. We are going to stay at the Basswood resort for a couple of nights and should be as good as new. There is a V-rod rally at the resort this week. The Harley Da

Today I finally bought some new sneakers at the outlet mall next to camp. The old ones were very tattered and had a lot of hard miles on then but size 14's are hard to find. We then toured Omaha, mainly the Missouri river and the Old Market. Then back to the Wingebachs for more visiting and di
