Day 2 of the Great Adventure
We left Pittsburgh on Saturday, July 7 a little before 5pm. We figured that by leaving that late we'd miss the worst of the heat on the road and also the insanity that is Chicago.
As it stands I actually missed Chicago completely. Animal and I traded driving duties and I pooped out within a few miles of the Windy City. (She told me there was a lot of traffic, even at 1am. Quel surprise.)
We had sort of figured on getting past that hurdle and then finding a motel, but she got her second wind and kept going. We traded off at 7:30am (yes, I know. Me awake at that hour!) and we arrived at our hotel around 1-ish.
After eating and some light shopping (we found a Thrift Store!!!) we are both collapsed on our separate beds, messing with computers and unable to process much in the way of being productive. At some point we will go looking to see what can be seen, but for the moment we are burnt!
Tomorrow we head to the fair to set up. The performing starts on Tuesday. Keep your fingers crossed for cool(er) weather.
Ta for now.
