We have the privilege to tune in to our own church and again have taken advantage of that opportunity this morning.
 
Ryan joined us here at the campground later this afternoon and we said our goodbyes.  Tomorrow morning, we anticipate leaving Chicago and doing part of the final leg of our journey back to our hometown in Ohio. 

Stan has kept a good record of our traveling stats....we've posted a few below.  Thanks so much for checking in on the journal....it was fun taking photos and documenting my observations, knowing that there was someone there who would enjoy it along with us.  Traveling together on such a scale has been great fun and an engaging adventure for us...it's like nothing we've experienced as a couple before in our RVing history.  For us, it has been the trip of a lifetime.  We are so glad we went and now will also be glad to return home.  Thanks for coming along with us, and God bless! 
Pat and Stan

Just to clarify:
(We left with our RV from Ohio in October, traveling to Virginia and then on to Florida before the winter weather.  We camped in Florida until March, at which time we began our journey west to California, then north up the west coast, through Canada and finally into Alaska, then returning through Canada and the northern US states, returning to Ohio in September.)

Our traveling stats for 2011/2012:
Motor home miles driven since we left Ohio last October: 14,210
Total touring Jeep miles since we left in October: 9,972
Camping locations since we left in October: 89
