It's an Advil night tonight

Almost 300 miles of two lane roads and a lot of beautiful country, leaving Champaign IL and arriving Hartford WI. I can feel it in my bones, and some of the soft tissue as well!

I love the midwest farms. Today was MORE corn and soybeans for about half the day. Here is a shot of one of the farm houses with endless fields of corn.

They are REALLY friendly here in IL. I don't know who told them I was coming, but somehow they heard about it and posted a big welcome sign for me!

I did not expect to find this beautiful, restored old town square along the way. My GPS insisted that I go to the town center, so to satisfy her, I did. There a found a great creperie for lunch and a beautiful square to walk around and stretch my legs some. Here are just a couple of shots. You may be able to see the Great Dane in the pic of the cafe. He was at the table next to me; just like Paris. AND he ordered from the menu. They brought him a big round steak, cooked just the way he likes, I am sure. Who is going to argue with him.

Tomorrow, across WI to Door County. Thats the peninsula that forms Green Bay in Lake Michigan. Another day of lots of miles.
