Long Travel Day

Today we traveled from Bardstown, KY to Elkhart, IN.  About 330 miles.  Thankfully, my cruise control worked ALL DAY! :)   This made the day much easier.  I can not say the same for the roads.  We ran into construction most of the way, and our road was closed at Louisville, KY.  We had to adjust.  We came to a complete stop at one point north of Indianapolis.  We stopped for fuel in Indianapolis and had lunch.  They had a Denny's in the Flying J.  Fuel is Very Expensive in Indiana.  We went up US 31 most of the way north of Indianapolis and had LOTS of miles of construction.  Then, to top it all off, our GPS did not have us on the correct road.  It showed us off of the road and kept trying to get us to turn to get on the road we were already on.  I think whoever submitted the maps to Rand McNally must has had their coordinates incorrect.  We did finally make it to the campground, but the GPS is just about completely use less here.  We will he here at Elkhart Campground to 2 nights and move into the fairgrounds for the Escapade.  At least that isn't very far.  Hopefully we will be able to find it without the GPS.  I saw a RV factory parts place on the way through town, and if I can find it again, I'll try to find light for Debby in the bedroom.
Y'all travel safe, and I'll type more later.
