We're on both I-80 and I-90...a thrill as we drive into Ohio! We'll stop and talk for awhile in Toledo, Glass City, before heading east and (sadly) bypassing Cleveland. There is time, though, for a few rollercoasters at Cedar Point!

We're crossing the Mississippi! But not until we talk about wrestling and why Iowa. After we'll talk about John Deere and flat states vs pancakes before passing Chicagoland and ending near Notre Dame!

We're taking a quick break from the interstate (again) and heading south through the plains of Nebraska to see where America's favorite childhood drink was invented and stop by a literary gem of a town before heading to Lincoln to pick up our journey again.

Now comes the worst possible drive ever: Wyoming. (Sorry not sorry.) But before we leave SLC, we'll talk about the Olympics and pioneers, then endure Evanston and the barrenness of central-southern Wyoming where it snows in June and there's a random Lincoln statue in the mountains.

We're taking a small break from the interstate and heading south of Reno to Nevada's cute state capitol and one of the most gorgeous lakes in the world. We're also in true Western territory, with some of the largest ghost towns and silver mines in American history close by as well.
