Oh.! And 6 or 8 lanes of traffic bottle necks to 2 at the toll booth.
No, I avoided the toll way. I went on 90 & 94. On the way up I hit Chicago at 11:00am, cars and semis door to door, bumper to bumper. I was in first gear
or neutral most of the time. If i reached 5mph I felt like I was hauling ass. It took a long time getting through that crime riddled city. Going home on Sunday
was the quickest I have ever driven through Chicago. I was rarely driving less than 50mph. I was very thankful for relative light (for Chicago) traffic (for Portland IN
it would be considered heavy).
