Amost Home!

Wed March 9, we left Peru Il, after making use of the hotel facilities, fitness room and breakfast.  It was about 45 deg when we left the hotel, by the time we got to Rockford Il, it was 36, misting, low clouds, ice on ponds, snow on the side of the roads...

The further north we went the colder it became and the snow pack increased...  driving was not too bad and most of the roads were clean, although a few parts had water on them.  had to use the windshield washer solution!  first time in months...  There was a billboard advertising a Cheese House with 126 varieties of Cheese!!  Know we are home now..  got to love it.. We stopped in Tohma for the night.  

after checking in we went to the local casino...  walked out with a few bucks extra...  went to a supper club hoping for Walleye..  well it was not recommended!!!  so we went with the NY strip steak.  very good choice!  we will get our Walleye this weekend.  lots of places near Birchwood that serve it..

our last night on the road..  from our hotel room window...

its been a great adventure and we hope to go somewhere else this fall.. 

final blog tomorrow...
