This first day, we only went 390 miles and we’re over-nighting in Brazil, Indiana, at a Moose Lodge. <\/p>\n
We’d hoped for the availability of an electric outlet, but that didn’t work out. They do have an empty level grassy lot adjacent to their parking lot so there’s lots of room for us. <\/p>\n
The only person we’ve talked to (a lady Moose hauling out the trash) was pleasant. We probably won’t spend much time in the lodge. We went in to use the restrooms but the place is a blue haze of cigarette smoke, probably because they had a bingo this afternoon. With my allergies, going in there just isn’t a good idea. <\/p>\n
We had dinner downtown which is within walking distance. Nothing fancy just a little hamburg joint with about a dozen stools at a lunch bar. Kind of a throw back to the 50’s. <\/p>\n
It’s 6:20, the TVs on (running off batteries); my cellphone and digital connection seem to be working fine. We tried the furnace out and it came on. <\/p>\n
This first day hasn’t been very exciting, but at least we’ve started our journey. Can’t say we’ve seen any glorious scenery, but we can now brag that our trip included an excursion to Brazil! Wow!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
