Mt.Vernon MO to Huntington IN. 600 Miles
This was a day to make miles. I didn’t have any particular destination, other than to see the Arch in St. Louis again. I really didn’t know what I wanted to accomplish other than to get to Chicago on the right day. Mainly, I wanted to get up into the Great Lakes region, and maybe see some land I hadn’t seen before.
In St. Louis, all the highways converge to one bridge over the Mississippi, and I had been there before on other trips, so it is not surprising that I got lost. Well, maybe not lost, but rather turned around. I accidentally took the westbound highway instead of east bound when the routes got all tangled together. At least I got to drive though the city and see the architecture. (That’s the excuse anyway.)
