Total States: 17
Well, all vacations need to have an end somewhere... Today was a relatively short drive ("only" 670 miles) from Louisville back home to Ithaca. There really wasn't a ton to note, so here's the normal log and photo compilation:
The drive from Louisville to Ithaca.Mile 4032: Crossed over into the state of Ohio
4142: Went through Columbus
4360: Made it through Ohio (in its very longest direction) and entered Pennsylvania. My lowest average speed for any state was here in PA, where there were no less than three major road construction projects in the 38 miles I went though. Caught a few glimpses of Lake Erie.
4398: Entered good 'ole New York State. The drive along the southern tier (the southern row of counties along the base of NY) was the prettiest since Glacier by far. It's all tree covered hills with quaint dairy farms in the meadowed valleys.
Mile 4617: Arrived at my house in Ithaca. I'm not sure which is more amazing: the fact that my car made it 4616 miles without anything breaking, or the fact that I was able to drive up Stewart Ave with nothing breaking. (For those of you not around Ithaca, Stewart is a very (read: VERY) old brick street just west of the university that is not in the best shape. My best guess is that the street itself is on the historic landmarks registry or something, so they can't just rip it out and repave...)
