On I-70 today, we passed a sign that stated that the next 8 miles of I-70 was the first section of Interstate highway in the U.S. it was completed after the passage of the Federal-Aid and Highway Act of 1956.
It seems that MO has also made a claim of being first. Either way, I find it interesting that the Interstate system, was started in my backyard, and is now 46,876 miles in all.
We are now in Missouri at the KOA in Oak Grove which is close to our family and friends. Although Andiamo longs to be back in the water this is her home for the next 5-7 days.
Tonight is a work night, I’m doing laundry and working on the boat, Rick is washing Big Red and grocery shopping. But tomorrow, let the party begin.
