We got off a little later than expected this morning but made it from Tulsa to St. Louis then east to Mt. Vernon, Illinois, about 490 miles. We found a dog friendly Comfort Inn and crashed about 8:30 PM. The weather was good and we enjoyed the scenery. This is rolling Mid-America, tracts of wooded hills, lush farm land all dressed in the green, offset by vast yellow fields of Rapeseed, from which Canola oil is obtained. About all I got today was highway photos but it was a good day.

Take care on the southern route coming back. Ol' Man River is way over his banks. Traffic down the Verdigris is halted I believe.
The road disappeares around the bend - one is very tempted to follow.
Wow, you got a long ways on day one.
I found highways fascinating when I came here: they are so wide! In France, most roads are just basic two-lane roads.
We recently visited Roanoke as well. Hubsy needed to see the O. Winston Link Museum; I visited it too, then took photos in Roanoke.
