Ok, first let me say that apparently IL is the Ody capital of the world! I saw a ton of Odys on the road in IL but hardly any in KY or TN.
We went from Nashville to St. Louis first to see the Arch & check out the zoo. Our friend met us there (00 MB Ody) with her kids then we them back to their home northwest of Springfield, IL.
The NAVI was great; I had no idea how to get to our hotel or the Arch or the zoo and all of those locations were there. It made me feel...lazy...for not having to worry about where we were going or even what highway were on.
Anyway, bug-city on the van (geez there are some BIG bugs out in the cornfields of IL) which I have to clean off today but not a whole lot more to report.
We did check out the IL State Fair while we were there & got some deep fried cheese curds YUM!
