A Three State Day - Day 30

The low temperature today was 82F and high temperature was 94F, continuing the mid western heat conditions. Gasoline purchased today came in at $3.699/gallon, quite a bit different than the $0.24/gallon that was paid by the two friends in the 1922 Model T Ford in the 1948 trip.  The trip today included driving across the entire states of Illinois and Indiana and part of Ohio stopping in Richmond to tour the Model T Museum.  I know the Model T was not exactly the most luxurious auto in the world but they were affordable to almost anyone.  Thanks to the curator for being so informative on the different Model T's in the Museum.
Tomorrow includes revisiting some of the former places as the scheduled date of returning home gets closer to the September 1 deadline.
Take Care!
