We don't do much on the day we leave to head back to reality ~ so, with O'Wich all buttoned up we headed home.





ADIOS WISCONSIN AND WELCOME TO ILLINOIS




Do you know that the Wisconsin/Illinois state line is 1/2 way between here and there? Of all the times we've made this trip, this was the first time ISP was there to welcome us! Trooper Kenton gave me a welcome to Illinois gift of a neon pink envelope (he actually charged me $75 for it!) He even invited me to a get-together to celebrate all the pink envelopes he had been giving out. There's a $30 charge for admission to the event and a $40 upcharge to move the gathering closer to my house! Fun times! Can't wait!

Trooper: 83.3333 in a 65
Me: I think the odometer is off - maybe 72
Trooper: Airplane overhead

Trip home from O'Wich - 3 hours AND 25 minutes
Stopped by ISP - 25 minutes, $75, pink envelope
Can this be written off - Priceless!

We did make it home safely and look forward to going back, although next time it might take a bit longer!

Nothing says "Welcome Back to The Land of Lincoln," like being reminded of why you left in the first place! Sounds like you had a blast... now can you PLEEEEEESE come back to work??? Lindsay and I have forgotten what it's like to work with competent people!!!
