After an almost too short 3 days in Chicago, we hit the road for small town America, burgers, corn fields, and UFOs. On our way out from Chicago, we hit some massive rain. Now I know why Midwesterners snicker at Seattle rain. Seriously, I thought when people said it rained so hard that it was like pouring water on your windshield, I always thought they were full of ish. But check this out.
Before
After
It was no exaggeration when I say it was like someone was throwing buckets and buckets of water on our windshield. Later we found out that we encountered one of the biggest downpours of the year thus far, causing flooding in Cleveland and a bunch of other cities in the Midwest.
I'm also proud to announce my new favorite chain diner - best catfish fillets and candied carrots ever!
Look, giant Smarties! Only in the midwest!
Pick up lines, 50's-style

Haha, Cracker Barrel. I took a business trip to Memphis a long time ago (1992?) and stayed in a Red Roof Inn. There was a Cracker Barrel attached to the hotel so I ate there a lot; I didn't have a rental car. Did you get any biscuit and grits?
I got a lot of stares while eating... "What, you haven't seen a Chinese person before?"
