We should reach our final destination of Chicago early tomorrow so this will be our last day to just drive and enjoy the sights. Jay decided to start out with a power breakfast at a local Springfield, Il restaruant, Jungle Jim's, and ordered the "Ponyshoe". We then headed out to enjoy the small towns between Springfield and Joliet. We really dodged a bullet today in Williamsvilee, Il. We thought we were going slowly through the town but then the Police pulled us over for speeding! Fortunately, he was nice and gave us a warning but I was really nervous that we were going to end up in the "Mayberry" court.
