A whole family, in a white chevy, smiling and waving at Charles. Father beaming and excited — more so than his ten year old son. Couldn’t get their picture fast enough.

45 miles to plymouth Michigan.
Is gasoline mire efficient at lower altitudes? I wouldn’t think it’d be perceptible.
The guy next to me almost drove off the road when he saw Charles.
Around Detroit you can feel
IQs dropping like barometric pressure. Or maybe it’s just the way people are driving? 😉
Snarky. I know. It happens.

I just drive through the entire states of Minnesota and Wisconsin and I didn’t buy a Yule log!
At least I found some baked goods. ;).

Coming up on Kalamazoo Michigan.
First large roadkill of the trip. Deer. The concrete highway is vibrating the car fast and hard. Charles looks like he’s laughing.
He terrified a girl at the gas station this morning. ;). If she wasn’t awake beforehand, she was after. 🙂

Entering Chicago. Sunny and cold. Clear roads continue. Skyline is a paper cutout of blue grey against the sky.
Chicago always seems a dirty city to me.
That is, until I go to Europe, or god forbid Asia.
Different cultural property definitions have different consequences. Americans make fewer tragedies if the commons. Religious particularism expresses itself as order and cleanliness.

Out of Minnesota and crossing Wisconsin. Not much between Issaquah and Minneapolis. Not much at all. ;). It’s beautiful nothingness, but it’s nothingness.
