Karott'sJourneys

 A day late for sure....where does the time go.  Once you reach your grandchild that is where my attention goes. Yesterday was a great day.  Peoria is a beautiful city and we will definitely go back to Millpoint RV and campground to stay longer than a day.  Driving through Illinois into Ohio was beautiful.  So many water towers, crop silos, rivers, an archway, family, glow bugs and some unknown bug that bit my legs..... We stopped in Indianapolis, Indiana to visit with my Aunt Judy, cousins: Tami and Tracy, Tami's son: Kevin and grandson Leo.  So wonderful to see them all.  Family is a blessing. Goodnight all...enjoy.                                                            Leaving Millpoint RV and campground                                                              Beautiful morning sky over East Peoria                                                                                Acres of wind turbines                                                            I'm guess

Hello, we drove a little further than planned today and ended up at a beautiful campground in a most excellent space that looks out at the Peoria River.  The photos you will see first are of our view and campsite because it is amazing.  Plus we watched a lightening storm across the river....watched it come this way on the radar....watched the neighbors putting away their chairs and table....when Scott says we should put our stuff away...and no sooner did we set our book and drinks in the trailer did the wind begin.  We got the chairs and table put away just in time before the pouring rain, thunder and lightening started.  We watched the storm from inside our trailer with all the lights out. I was able to capture the compass with a lightening bolt across the app. Our drove from Iowa to Illinois was once again filled with water towers, lush green fields of corn, silos, the Mississippi River, wind turbine props in transport and the Rock River.
