Elkhart, Indiana, to Chicago, Illinois

Entering Michigan from Indiana 19 onto a road which doesn't seem to be numbered any longer on the Michigan side. [Crop/Zoom: 1059x560]

Onto US 12 for a while. [Crop/Zoom: 409x671]

It's freshly paved and reasonably scenic. [Larger: 1744x1308]

Edwardsburg. [Crop/Zoom: 669x1351]

It's historic. [Crop/Zoom: 508x1397]

Coming up on Niles, which we'll bypass to the south on US 12. [Crop/Zoom: 596x669]

[Crop/Zoom: 1522x1397]

[Crop/Zoom: 1993x601]

[Crop/Zoom: 466x655]

[Crop/Zoom: 1195x663]

[Crop/Zoom: 1668x1035]

We do go right through Three Oaks on US 12. [Crop/Zoom: 382x199]

And here's Three Oaks. [Larger: 1744x1308]

As we get to I-94, there's some major construction. [Crop/Zoom: 1203x629]

Now on I-94, it's back to Indiana for a bit. [Crop/Zoom: 894x593]

[Crop/Zoom: 1258x999]

[Crop/Zoom: 1232x963]

We got off I-94 here to top off the gas before getting to the crazy gas prices of Chicago. [Crop/Zoom: 1034x569]

A short new segment of US 20 for me. [Crop/Zoom: 347x382]

[Crop/Zoom: 465x1314]

And now we rejoin I-90. [Crop/Zoom: 2498x815]

[Crop/Zoom: 1872x1155]

[Crop/Zoom: 2596x965]

Indiana seems not to understand the proper interaction of the decimal point and the cents symbol. [Crop/Zoom: 2327x1133]

[Crop/Zoom: 687x542]

[Crop/Zoom: 2061x1176]

At least they're consistent about misusing a decimal point with the cents symbol. Does no one with any math sense work for the sign shop? [Crop/Zoom: 2123x933]

[Crop/Zoom: 2014x890]

[Crop/Zoom: 1646x785]

And we're in Chicago. Illinois, too, but they didn't bother telling us that. [Crop/Zoom: 1899x664]

[Crop/Zoom: 426x881]

Pulleys! It's science. [Larger: 1744x1308]

[Crop/Zoom: 487x987]

It's a ridiculously expensive short stretch of road. [Crop/Zoom: 2139x1620]

[Larger: 1744x1308]

The Dan Ryan is in much better shape than on my last visit, when there was a lot of major construction underway. [Larger: 1744x1308]

[Crop/Zoom: 1994x753]

[Larger: 1744x1308]

Passing by Comiskey. [Larger: 1744x1308]
