another glimpse at autumn in illinois

Images like this one make me smile. I love autumn, don’t you?! This was shot at Kickapoo State Park near Danville Illinois — one of the many state parks that the governor is closing on November 1. I’m glad I was able to take my girls there last week, but it makes me sad that...
