What's wrong with a little flirting?

Day 2 Lost much?

After several minutes of pacing back and forth in front of Kathy and Scott's window wondering if Lisa had decided she would have more fun on the road without me, she came through and arrived.  Literally minutes before the skies opened up and poured.  My suitcase was barely in the trunk before the cats and dogs came pouring down.  Since this was such an auspicious beginning to our trip we didn't get the photo ops, but instead headed out into the rainy abyss.
We immediately popped in the Illinois cd (if you didn't know, I made a cd for each state we were to visit, using only musicians from that state or songs that have the state name in the song.) and began rocking out in the rain.
Our first stop was to be the worlds largest pair of silly nose and glasses.  We plugged in the address in GPS and off we were.  GPS preceded to try and lead us down not one, not two, but three roads that were either closed or did not even exist.  After our third foil, we gave up on our quest to see the nose and glasses - sigh.  We preceded on to Warsaw, Indiana to see Lisa's younger brother Greg who works at the prestigious Wagon Wheel Theater.  Greg works crazy hours and builds amazing sets, when we visited he was working on the set up for an amazing production of The Wizard of Oz.  The two 20 minutes meals that we got to see Greg were great and then we were off on the road again....
