• Travel to Indiana

    May 7 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C

    Pretty uneventful travel day. Started with a local walk, then hooked up the camper and started driving South West. Stopped about 1/3 of the way at Malabar Farm, another beautiful Ohio state park and campground. This park celebrated Louis Bromfield, a famous American author from the 1930’s, who was also an agriculturalist, something very fitting right after the 1920’s dust bowl caused in part by unsustainable farming techniques. Louis Bromfield was a key advocate in changing the way farming is done in America to more sustainable methods. We ate lunch from the camper, but in a beautiful field with beautiful blue skies, green rolling pastures, horses, and birds. Was even able to get some significant solar charging done :). As we headed west, things got much flatter and straighter. There was a bit of wind, so top speeds were around 60mph which only costs us about 10 min per hour of driving, but saves on gas. Stopped at Walmart to pick up some little things for the camper, and some tortillas for dinner. Pulled in to Ouabache State Park in Indiana. Cooked chicken quesadillas for dinner, cleaned up, and then went for a walk. When we returned, we realized we threw away part of the garbage can, so it was time for Dan to go dumpster diving to get our trash back. Still not sure how I got nominated for that job since I didn’t throw it away to begin with but….. happy wife, happy life!Read more
