Please excuse all the typos and fragments, I&#8217;m using my iPhone. <\/p>\n<p>Right now I&#8217;m at Lieber State Recreation Area about half way between Indianapolis and Terre Haute. It is getting cold just like it was at 5:30 when I left this morning. I drove almost to Erie before it got light out. I sure feel the pain of driving all day &#8211; I think I stopped at every rest area along the road, just to stretch and walk the kinks out. <\/p>\n<p>A funny thing happened last night. Dave and Lisa came to Buffalo to see me before I left. I was telling Dave that I wanted to get a car charger for my laptop so that I could blog on my trip. Dave knew of an AC inverter that would power all my plugin devices and I called Best Buy to see if they carried them. They did and we decided to go pick it up and get something to eat. Before we left I asked Lisa to put my charger cord in her purse so that we could match the specs to the power adapter. <\/p>\n<p>I was surprised when Dave and Lisa presented me with the new power adapter as a gift for my birthday and trip. It was so special. Later that night, just as I was falling asleep, my phone rang. It was Dave,<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dad, we still have your laptop cord in Lisa&#8217;s purse.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We all forgot to take it out before they went back to Rochester. It should be waiting at Daryl&#8217;s when I get there. And anyway, I wanted to practice this on my phone.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m getting a very poor signal, but I will try to let everyone know where I am.
