Oh, Hi, O!

Leaving Harrisburg about ten this morning, the 22nd, we meandered north and west into Ohio.
Those spots you see are bugs….it's the midwest again!


We needed to get fuel after several hours on I80 westbound, so just south of Cleveland we pulled off into a service center. Ohio names it's service centers, and this one is called Portage, for the freight that needed to be moved around impassable rapids or falls in nearby rivers back in the day.
We found a nice out of the way spot in a huge parking lot and settled in. There were only about a dozen trucks in the lot.


With the evening, the temps cooled enough for us to sit outside a bit and watch the world go by…at least on the Interstate!

As I write this, about 11:30 EDT, the parking lot is completely full of big rigs. There must be a hundred rigs or more! I don't think we'll have any trouble waking up in the morning when all these trucks leave!

  1. I think that is the same one where we stayed with Umh a couple years ago. Great concept, I think, but need to be able to accommodate Nessie size.

    1. The rv sites were empty, but due to our size we had to camp with the Big Boyz. Intimidating, but interesting!
