Location

300 17000e Rd N, Momence, IL 60954; address conveniently converted from the GPS coordinates by the very useful website http://stevemorse.org/jcal/latlon.php; this can be read by my GPS enabled phone's software, as opposed to the actual coordinates. This turned out to be a farm ~60 miles south of Chicago, almost on the IL-IN border.

People

Only one, sadly. (I'm pretty sure I got the place right!) But some lovely pictures were taken, and a lovely time was had by one.

A nice field (of onion flowers??) along the road to the meetup site

Swampy parkland

Quaint pedestrian-only bridge at the swampy parkland

Gorgeous sky, flat land

Swampy parkland

The site itself.
