On the Road Again

Here we are, on the road again. It was 0C when we left Kitchener this morning and overcast. By the time we got to Joliet Illinois, we reached 19C or 66F; shirt sleeve weather! We've begun our trip with a stay in a Fairfield in Joliet because it's hard to predict that the weather would have been warm enough to camp at the beginning of April.

When you press the button on the right,
you get to listen to "Get your kicks on Route 66"

Unfortunately this museum wasn't open on Mondays

What a great name for a coffee house!

The Rialto Square Theatre

Really beautiful

The Marx Brothers performed at the Rialto in the 20's

A short walk around downtown and then the Lone Star Steak House for dinner. New topping for baked sweet potatoes - butter sprinkled liberally with cinnamon and sugar - yummy!
