Beth’s hometown is Janesville, Wisconsin, and we made it here about 3pm going with Plan B given our car troubles. The auto shop did call us earlier than we expected yesterday around 1pm. I went and got the car and we drove to West Lafayette, Indiana (Plan B), as there was a nice hotel on the University of Purdue campus.
The Union Hotel was really nice and feels a lot like The Graduate hotels. We explored it and the attached Purdue Memorial Union. The Union was quiet, as classes were done for the semester. We grabbed some snacks for dinner at a nearby Target and headed back to the room.
The hotel gave us a free upgrade, so before dinner in or room, we had a couple free Vesper Cocktails and a five-piece shrimp cocktail. The photos below are from last evening and this morning on my walkabout while Beth was running.
This morning after checking out, we drove to Beth’s aunt’s place in Chicago and had a great lunch and good visit before fighting with the Chicago traffic on our way to Janesville.
