Preparation and planning for this trip really paid off. The bus ran flawlessly through all 2245 miles round trip.

Unprepared…

This past weekend we were planning to visit Bloomington, Indiana to attend a comedy show with my favorite comedian, Marc Maron at the Comedy Attic.

Free camping!

We were scheduled to return from vacation on Saturday with a six hour drive scheduled from our last campground.
