Welcome back Wisconsin!

Trip-241 miles

Log-5277 miles

Today was a relatively short trip so we took our time and enjoyed the day and the sights along the way.


We made an unscheduled stop at Starved Rock Lock and Dam and toured the museum and lock facility from a different point of view (land).


Just a year ago we were going through the lock heading South on the Illinois River on the sailboat so our view was quite different (water).  We actually had to wait several days for this lock to open because of the worst flood they ever had. See photo to left taken September 2008.


It was nice to get back to Wisconsin to see our friends and relatives here.
