Summer in New England - Road trip 2012- Day 1

We left bright and early this morning to head out on our adventure to the northeast!  After a quick trip to Starbucks for Katy we were off like a shot!
We decided to go a different route than usual to avoid I-40 and see some different scenery, so we went the round-a-bout way through NE AR and the "boothill" of Missouri before heading up through Illinois and turning eastward through Indiana and Ohio.
We saw a very nice Missouri welcome center in Hayti, MO and decided to stop because even though we have both been to the state numerous times we had never been to a welcome center there before. 
We ate at a super-mega-deluxe IHOP in Cincinnati at one of the nicest malls we have ever seen with sprawling mega-versions of normal mall stores.  Overall it was a very nice day because we were expecting the day to feel longer because of the 750 mile distance we traveled. 
Looking forward to tomorrows travels through Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York!
Here are some pictures of our first day!
