Day 1: November 1, 2016 To the Beginning Comment via blog

As is typical with Route 66 journeys, the first step is getting into position to start by zipping toward Chicago via expressways. In Indianapolis I took a late breakfast break at Good Morning Mamma's. In hindsight I kind of wish I'd sat outside but instead I enjoyed my excellent meal at the boomerang-Formica covered counter.

Restoration of the Lincoln Highway Ideal Section markers in Dyer, Indiana, wasn't quite complete when I drove by in July but all was ready for the September 17 rededication. Not only does it look great, the site can now be reached safely on the new sidewalk.

When I realized that 3 Floyds Brewery was just a few miles away, a pause for the cause was almost automatic. This as my second visit and I found the place less crowded (My first visit was later in the evening.) and much more enjoyable.
