I breakfast with Allan and lingered with conversation and coffee. I stayed until 8:00, the latest departure time to arrive at my campsite mid afternoon. I was only a few blocks away from my route so I began my journey again without delay.

The 15-20 mph wind was in my favor so the miles flew by quickly.

I really like these small Illinois road with nice views and low traffic.

I arrived at the Ashkum Village Park and visited with a few residents before looking for the best stop to setup tent out of the wind. I found a local pizza house that delivered and enjoyed my dinner. The low predicted tonight is 37°. I think fall is here.
