Blogging on Borrowed Time

When you visit this blog, do you wonder, "When will Jordan run out of funny blog titles?"  Well, friend, I'll tell you: never.

Today, I will post some pictures from our adventure that we had coming out this way.  Just to get you in the travel mode, here's a map of our journey:

We basically took I-70 from Indianapolis until it veered to far north in Western Kansas.

Tobi was a good dog during the trip, perhaps thanks to the medicine we gave him.

Not long after we left Kokomo, we had to bid a fond farewell to our Indiana home.  Of course, "On the Banks of the Wabash, Far Away" came to mind.  Even though I was already longing for my Indiana home, we eagerly pushed on into Illinois.

There wasn't much in Illinois to comment on.  I'm not very familiar with So. Ill., other than it has a cool abbreviation.

At this point in our trip, my dad and I reminisced about our trip to St. Louis a few years back.  This trip was a good time, filled with baseball games and a brewery tour.  However, it is also the trip on which I lost my favorite Cubs hat while trying to get a picture of the St. Louis Arch from the highway.

My dad and I have competing baseball loyalties.

Not long after entering Illinois, we crossed into Missouri.  We went around St. Louis on this trip, but we did get to see the arch.

St. Louis must be broke if they sold the arch to Travelodge!

Now crossing into Missouri.

That gets you up to Missouri.  In the next post, I'll chronicle the journey further.

Just so you're not stuck in the past, I did get installed today as vicar at Our Savior Lutheran Church in Pagosa Springs, Colorado.
