Last weekend in October was beautiful> we set out with a baggie full of change for the toll roads in IL,the dog in the back seat and drove for 4.5 hours to fly in a glider. It really was better planned than that but not by much. I’d never been to Beloit before to do anything, only to drive through. I must say that they have a good though small famers market.We got some Koli Rabi,sweet potatos,and some buckwheat honey , all yummy stuff.The hotel allowed my dog to stay(for a fee)but thats better than a kennel.
The Soaring was really good, my MR. caught an updraft from a burning ditch, it was the highlight of his year to that point. The soaring field is the only one in the 5 state area,so that is why we went. We had a very good breakfast at a diner at the crossroads just over in South Beloit IL.If it wasn’t for having to get home we probably would have done more exploring,
Anyplace different is always fun.
