Woke up a little while ago from a miserable night's sleep. The fucking freight train and its blaring horn were a constant all night long. Another is that I got eaten alive by the mosquitos and need a shower. I feel so dirty and uncomfortable. Should have stayed in a motel in Defiance.

Had to stop and take a few pictures of this: Tons of old bicycles and lawn mowers and other items neatly laid out in rows waiting for a new home.

Let's hear the applause: I'm in Indiana! Stopped and took a motel room here in Auburn, Indiana on Route 8 west. As I check-in I noticed that the clock on the wall is one hour behind. I'm in Central time so it was really 1 o'clock. The roads in Indiana are horrible. Route 18 in Ohio spoiled me. Took a shower and will just chill out till tomorrow.
