Beautiful day for a drive

It was a beautiful day today for a drive.  We packed up the Motorhome and hit the road about 10:00am after a stop at the dump station.  Beautiful blue sky with white fluffy clouds and temperatures in the low 80s.  We made a fuel stop at the Pilot Travel Center just north of Findlay Ohio.  We stopped for Lunch at the I-75 Rest Area just south of Bowling Green Ohio and we pulled back in to Camp Lord Willing just before 3:00pm.  We traveled 185.7 miles today.

Picture looks pretty much like all the other pictures of the motorhome sitting in site 48.
