Description
On Aug 17-1925, accompanied
by Chas Daily of Colorado Sprs
who had come from Western
Elec. Plant, Chicago the 15th to visit
Ohio relatives of his mother, we
started early toward Chicago.
with Chas Wheaton at the
wheel for a hundred miles or
so. After lunch, somewhere
close to, or in Indiana, Chas.
Daily became chaffeur and
surely did delight in "stepping
on her",-to my discomfort and
dismay and, -well, all but
anger. Especially as we neared
Chicago, because there were so
many, close together, sharp turns
in Northern Indiana roads.
Reached South Chicago for early
lunch and there Chas. Daily left us.
Camp sites around S. Chi. did
not suit us, so we just kept on
driving, as the sun was still shining
until came to Joliet (Ill) city
camp, where decided had enough
motoring for one day 339 mi- a big
record run, because had two drivers.
Rained in night so next morning went into
city for breakfast, at a Drug Store-Morning 18th
Verticle on card:
Taken after breakfast morning 19th.
Vertical left side:
This view is Lake St Madison where the Night of Aug 18 was spent.
