Illinois

Fort Kaskaskia State Historic Site Ellis Grove, Illinois

My morning walk…loops through the campground because there were some showers lingering.

A farmers market along the way with delicious pink heirloom tomatoes!

We drove east through the remainder of Missouri and across the Mississippi River into Illinois.

We found a nice site at Fort Kaskaskia.  The overlook of the Mississippi River.  Is that rain falling in Missouri??

We sat under the awning watching the rain and drinking wine…no complaints!

Sunset on the Mississippi River.

We were able to fill in several states on this trip…North Dakota, Wyoming, Kansas, and Nebraska. Idaho is on the agenda for next summer! This does NOT mean we are finished traveling, there is still a lot to see that we haven’t seen before and some things are worth seeing again!
