Knightstown, IN- $3.70
So we had a great time with the Fox family. It was great to see them. Hopefully since we are going to be "closer" now we can see them more often. I think it's important for cousins to be together when they are younger. Especially since these are Nathanials only ones. So on our way out of Indianapolis we hit some traffic. I was like it's Saturday why is there traffic. Ken was like maybe there was an accident. We got up to the spot and it was no accident...it was a drug or illegal immigrant bust. It was crazy but kind of cool to see. :)
Brookville, OH- $3.63
So we are in Ohio and there isn't a whole lot to see. Mostly small farming communities but there are more trees here then in Indiana. What I have noticed here...A LOT of antique malls. Seems like every other town has one. Maybe that's the thing to do here...antiquing. I really can't not think of the Drew Carrey show while we are in Ohio. I didn't even care for the show that much but I really don't have much to associate with it.
Delaware, OH- $3.51
So I am not sure about the peeps here in O-hi-o. Columbus is a nice looking city and we ill be going by Cleveland a bit later but I don't think they know how to drive here. Seriously. Twice now we have slowed down for absolutely no reason. It's odd. Then the Ohio state football people. I've never seen so many decked out cars. I mean there are a few in Seattle that do it but I've seen quite a few flags, decals (not just bumper stickers), personalized license plates, and one highly painted car. I guess they just really love their college football in Ohio.
Ashland, OH- $3.59
Ashland, OH- The headquarters for nice people (this was a billboard in this town)
So we think we passed Obama's bus. There were 2 buses with police escort. I remember hearing on NPR yesterday that he was going to be in Pennsylvania today. And since we are almost there that we think it could have been him. I think that's awesome. :)
Akron, OH- Goodyear World Headquarters
Girard, OH- $3.49
So we made it through Ohio and now are in Pennsylvania. It is absolutely beautiful!! Lots of tree covered hills and fantastic colonial farm houses. I am so excited to get to the east. This is really the part of the country that I want to see.

Hi Nikki & Ken! It's great reading your trava-blog and looking at your cool photos. My sister Marla got bored on their driving trip from Calgary to Vancouver last month and took photos of her nose. I'm not saying you need to do that; just that the long drives can drag on a bit at times. You'll soon be in Rhode Island and I think that's pretty neat too. Drive recklessly, like usual, ok? Love, Haui
Wow, looks like a very exciting trip! You just can't beat the Spam Museum for entertainment. You are very brave to be traveling with two cats but it sounds like they are enjoying the adventure. Looking forward to seeing pictures of your noses soon, thanks to Howie! Keep driving carefully and having fun,
Gail
