December 5, 1963
Thursday, cloudy. Left Lodi, Ohio 5:30 am, reached Springfield 8:45 and it started to snow. Came through Columbus before day light. Reach Indiana border 9:50 am, no snow for a while then light snow and wet roads. Cloudy most of the day. Set clocks back west of Indianapolis, were there around noon. Crossed Mississippi River 3:30 central time. Stayed over night near Sullivan MO 60 miles west of St. Louis and ate supper there.
Comment: Did 581 miles and probably at least 12-13 hours on the road. About a third of the trip completed in two days....
