On into Illinois on I-64, then we took US-45 through farm country, a little slower drive through some small towns, but not bad. Just past Effingham IL, we got onto back roads....miles of back roads...to reach Wolf Creek State Park, on Lake Shelbysville.
It was a long day of driving, but with the change to Central time, we were set up shortly before 5. The park has 300 sites, but few were taken when we arrived, so we got a prime spot with a paved drive and "patio" near the restrooms. A warm shower and clean clothes perked me up considerably! Weather remains sunny, a bit warmer, but pleasant. Ranger seems to be getting back into the routine.
Several people pulled into sites near ours after dark (which came early, with the time zone change), both with fishing boats. I guess fishing is the attraction at this large park that seems to be close to almost nothing but corn.
Wow! Your own basketball or four square court!
