Road Trip! CA -->> IL report W/ pics

First off I need to apologize to Solitude for falling asleep when I got to the hotel. We were going to get dinner, but we were wiped out from the little drive we did. My arm is still sore from holding the steering wheel to keep the wheels straight, poor alignment.<br><br>
