THE DRIVE TO THE HOTEL

Around New Berlin, Illinois

I know this is a crappy picture but we had some weird weather. I'm in Illinois and was driving back from Jacksonville to Springfield. They closed the highway due to high winds that were blowing up dirt off the corn fields. I had to take back roads back to Springfield. It was so thick and this is a quick pic of the road in front of me. Major winds, sunny, also rainy and the dirt storm all at the same time. Totally crazy!

Needless to say, I got back safely. Got to go eat a good meal and then took a drive out to Lake Springfield (right across the street from my hotel) and found more deer. I love it that any evening you drive out to the lake you see deer.

I will head home Friday evening just to fly out again on Sunday. Traveling will be basically non-stop for the next 6 weeks and possibly longer. But, I do come home on weekends. I'll be here in Illinois for 3 weeks, in Nebraska for a week and then in Nashville for 2 weeks. I have to say I enjoy the traveling but would like to take a week off soon. I've been working with very few days off now for a long, long time. It's time to take a vacation and get away to somewhere for just fun and relaxation. Have several venues in mind!

I really need to also get more involved in Pbase again. I just work so much that it is difficult, however, I'm really going to try. I do peruse thru eveyone's images as I can. Keep up the beautiful work, my friends!
