Sikeston MO to Angola IN

Another long driving day. It was a pretty day, and lots of tree colours along the way. We didn't stop for pictures today though, we were trying to get north of Ft Wayne to make our last day to home an easy one. See recent posts from The Furry Gnome or The Bayfield Bunch for some great fall colour pictures.

Getting through Indianapolis from I70 eastbound to I69 northbound was an absolute nightmare today! Some recent construction, it didn't seem recent enough to confuse the GPS, but we finally had to turn it off, it was totally lost and confusing us even more. It was about 3pm, and lots of fast traffic didn't help us at all. We did get through ok though in the end. Maybe we should have taken 465?

We'll try hard to not go through Indianapolis again, going or coming. One alternative we've done a time or two is to take US24 west from Ft Wayne, then find a good road to head south to I70 (like US 41), or even take US24 through to I57.


Here's today's map:
