Poor Ranger! I think he had a lonely day on the road
without Lola!
We left Tim’s early, but returned
there about ten minutes later due to the Check Engine light going on. Dan spoke to someone at a service place for
Sprinter in Iowa City, and concluded that we could continue on home with the
light on.
So south on I-380 to Iowa City,
where we picked up I-80 east. We passed over the Mississippi River again at
Quad Cities and then crossed Illinois, through Peoria, Bloomington, and
Urbanna. Miles and miles of corn fields,
all brown by now. We went through
Indianapolis shortly after 5:00, having entered Eastern time zone again, and
were slowed by traffic and road construction.
Around 6:30 we pulled into a private RV park called Hidden Paradise, the
first part of which may be true---we had difficulty finding it---but the second
part is certainly false. It’s a park
primarily full of seasonal campers, few of whom were around on a Thursday night
in September, and our site is just a parking place near the shower house.
Dan is getting itchy to be home,
and we covered over 400 miles today.
