Being Retired now, I thought that it was time for a new name to this Blog |
Driving Again Today! For some odd reason, I got a hair 'you know where' this morning, and despite being so exhausted yesterday from the drive Monday, I decided to drive to Indianapolis today. Why you ask? Because we were a little short on breakfast meat for our dogs. Don't get me wrong, we had enough to last another week, but our selection was limited. Having ordered packages of meat last week, I thought I should go pick it up. The company (My Pet Carnivore) was sold and had moved, so it was a little challenging to locate them. The address was easy to get to, but it was a HUGE Warehouse, of which they occupy a small part of it. Finding the correct door was the issue. The actual drive was uneventful, especially since I traveled alone today. Some people didn't have a very goiod drive though. I saw 2 Semi-Trucks that had wrecked today. Both were off the side of highway, one looked as if it had gotten tireed, and rolled over on its side. The other almost looked like it had rolled over in the high grass to the side of the road, but there wasn't enough damage for a roll-over. I figure the driver lost control and managed to not flip it. The cab had a little damage, not enough to say it rolled over. The trailer was a liquid tank, it too was damaged, but again, small wrinkles in it, not what I'd expect to see from a rollover accident. Today's drive took a lot less time than Monday too. I left just before 9, and returned about 3 pm. True, this wasn't as many miles as going to Chicago, but still.... I will say that Indianapolis has one of the worst roadways I've seen. Even I-70, and the connection to I-65 North was horrible. This, despite a constant state of construction around the city. I'm just glad I don't live there. Now to rest tonight so I'm not so beat tomorrow. |
