Galesburg, il. Ellen's birthplace.

Our camp for tonight was just outside Galesburg, Il. 

Ellen was born here not that many years ago.  Her dad used to run a farm just outside Galesburg. He and his brothers grew up on the farm   It is beautifully green here.  The corn on the fields is about knee high. The farmers goal is "knee high by the 4th of July."  

We are in a lush green campground that has its own fishing pond. Catch and release.  Also a swimming pool. It even has a frog that might turn into a prince if kissed.  It didn't work 

After a long day and not wanting to cook,  we bought dinner at the local supermarket deli counter. A little microwave back at camp and instant dinner!  We ate outside under the oak trees. Perfect dinner.
