Naperville......

Left Fairfax VA at 7 yesterday morning and drove approximately 12 hours to Naperville, IL where we're currently staying with some very old friends. We passed through Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and of course Illinois. Once you get into Ohio, there is nothing but farms and a straight road.The only time you really go up hill is when you're crossing a bridge, and Indiana's more of the same. We also crossed into the central time zone, something I wouldn't have known had I not looked it up before hand because my phone doesn't automatically change time for some reason. We stayed with a very old friend in Naperville and took a walk through the prairies this morning. The amazing thing about the prairie is the transformation that occurred when we entered it. One second, we were having a difficult time crossing a very busy street, and the next we were in a completely different world. Today w're heading to Jackson Minnesota, where we'll stay in a campground on our way to Mt. Rushmore and then on to Yellowstone / Grand Teton on thursday.
