2013 Theodore Goes to Theodore Day 5

Elizabethtown, KY to Home.  182.0 Miles.

Woke up to a steely cool morning.  There was no reason to stay in the odoriferous room any longer so we packed up and were on the road by 8:00ET.
Traffic was noticeably heavier since it was still the end of rush hour as we got near Louisville.  Once through Louisville, we decided that since we had plenty of time to get home, we'd get off the freeway and take mostly 2-lane roads home.  The slower pace was a welcome change especially since there was almost no other cars on the road.

We almost always cross the Ohio near Cincinnati.  The Brent Spence Bridge is chaotic and hardly scenic, so it was nice to cross in a quieter way.

Once across the river, we wound our way towards the direction of home with no real plan on the route.  It spit rain on and off for a little while, but never hard enough for it to matter.  We didn't bother with rain gear (and mine had holes in it anyway).
Eventually, we got back on I-74 for a short stretch and crossed into Ohio.  One gas stop and a half hour later and we were home.

For a trip which lasted less than 96 hours, it felt a lot longer and in a good way.  We ended up doing and seeing a lot on the trip and traveled just under 1880 wonderful miles of memories.  We traveled through three new motorcycle states.  And, the fourth Theodore is (more) complete.  Vacation time and money well spent.
