Starved Rock to Peoria Run...Sunday, Oct. 9, 2016

Big event in Utica this weekend. The town will be over filled with people.
 
Yes, I believe we encounter that every year. It is some type of flea market thing. We usually are driving through pretty early so we avoid the crowds.
 
Or if you can come in from the south way it avoids it as well. May not be feasible for most people. I know the one time it added 20 minutes to my trip.

At the hotel in ottawa and parked the boat to go into town.... come back, 1/2 empty lot and this is what is sitting in front of our boat. W.T.F.image.jpg
 
Yep. Funny thing is the pick up is unlocked. My wife said to put it in neutral.
 
I went out for a little ride today on the river. A lot of Eagles out along the river flying around.
