After traversing four states in one day, the odometer on my Jeep rolled past 3591. Thirty-three miles from our destination — Springfield, Illinois — I saw the red and blue flashers in the rear view mirror.
Welcome home to Illinois
BUSTED! I was willfully doing 80 in a 65 mph zone.
My twenty years without a traffic violation record was broken in, of all places, Morgan County, Illinois. Even the state trooper chuckled at the irony of that.
Sorry! I did not realize that you were headed toward my hometown!! Y'all MUST have a horseshoe sandwich while you are there. The best ones are served at Darcy's Pint.
Sadly, Vanessa, according to their web page they are closed on Sundays, our one day here!
