We had quite a time getting out of this town headed towards Boston. We started out and interpreted the map to stay on Route '64. Before we knew it we were in downtown Chicago. We learned this after we talked with an Officer and he finally got us back on the right track. We had to go out on Western Ave to 176th St - a ride of about sixteen miles before we go on Route 6 headed home

The DuWayne Motel in St Charles was one of the better ones. A Beautiful room w/2 double beds and a folding chair that made up into a single bed. They had provided two cups w/individual packages of Coffee & Powdered Milk and sugar. They requested that if it were used to leave 10c on the Desk. We had the Coffee but overlooked leaving the money.

Car still running beautifully and now have hopes of getting home by Thursday.

Nothing of any consequence happened outside of one thing?
