Where Are We Today
Wapakoneta, Ohio

Today was our second day on the road since leaving the Ridge. Departing from CanAm RV Center just after 8:00 a.m., we crossed the border in short order and proceeded west on I-69. 


Approaching Customs

The road still has some rough sections but improvements are being made. We picked up I-75 south just the other side of Flint for a couple of miles, then onto State Hwy 23 south. 

Construction along the way

This route took us down around Ann Arbor to By-Pass 475 round Toledo and back onto I-75. Here we carried onto Wapakoneta Ohio, where we are camped for the night.

I realize that this route is a little out of the way, but it has kept us away from Detroit and all the construction going on there.

Wapakoneta exit

Today we travelled 327.5 mi, burning 31.7 gal. of fuel and averaging 10.3 mpg. I filled the truck here in Wapakoneta @ U.S. $ 5.559/ gal for 33.018 gal.

Check back for our continued route. Until the next time, take care.

Our route so far

    1. We took this route going home last spring. Yes, cheaper than the $10.77 Canadian gallon we paid before we left.

    1. Yes, Detroit is always busy and lots of construction, best to avoid if possible. Happy to be back and looking forward to a great winter.
