Last night's Motel 6 had no internet access (something unspecific was broken), so I have no choice but to downgrade them to a Motel 3 3/5. At any rate, this post was written yesterday but could not be posted until this very minute. Please call corporate and voice your complaints.

The day began in Cleveland, Ohio ("Ohio: May all your dreams be covered in Hollandaise!"). After a nice breakfast of dinner around lunchtime, we headed for downtown Cleveland and the Rock and Roll History Museum. We couldn't find a gas station, but were assisted by a Good Samaritan. Actually, let's call him a Chaotic Good Samaritan, since in the process of leading us to the gas station he ran a red light and instructed us to turn left when it was clearly illegal. At the gas station, we discovered that there is now a beverage on sale that combines Bud Light and Clamato. Great, let's take two beverages that shouldn't exist and combine them into a new beverage that should be illegal, and then sell it in giant 24 oz cans. This is like the hippogriff of hangover delivery systems.
The museum was a pretty good time--lots of donated paraphernalia and audiovisual displays. I recommend it if you're already in Cleveland for another reason. Probably the most interesting thing is that they do a lecture series in the evenings, which is entertaining and well done. Unfortunately, we had to get back on the road and so only caught a few minutes of their presentation on Simon and Garfunkel.
The day ended around 4AM in Indiana ("Indiana: If you lived here, you'd be used to the smell by now."). This Motel 6 has pergo floors, so we are feeling well pampered. Dad pointed out that every Motel 6 is located in a part of town that looks the same in every state. At 4AM, this felt incredibly significant and held my attention for like two minutes.

Beer and clamato is suprisingly good. Don't knock it till you've tried it!
