Road Trip Finally underway

Welcome Center on I 40
I finally started heading west. I took I 40 West with the plans of getting to Nashville, Tenn for the night. Once I hit Knoxville, Tenn I had the choice of continuing on to Nashville or head North on I75  and go to Chicago and do the entire Route 66. I quickly decided I didn't want to be the guy that only did half of Route 66 so off to Chicago I went.

On the way thru Tennessee I had to stop when I saw this Dinosaur at Exit 134 on I 75 in Tennessee. It is a 30 foot Dinosaur that use to be next to a fire works store that is now gone. You can see the dinosaur from the Interstate.


After getting into Kentucky I pulled over at the Kentucky Music Hall of fame. It was about a 30 to 45 minute self guided tour then back on the road again.

After leaving Kentucky I drove into Ohio catching I 74 to Indiana which is were I am tonight. Not much so far in Indiana to take pictures of, but more driving tomorrow so no telling. I am sure once I get on Route 66 there will be lots of interesting pictures.
Ofcourse had to tell dad I wasn't looking at maps and almost ended up
taking I 75 to northern Ohio before realizing I needed to be on I74
A quick turn around and back on track.
