Onward from elwood to deeper into Illinois

We had some rain last night.  I stayed dry and luckily it was not raining to break camp and do breakfast #1. Very overcast, breezy, and cooler than last evening.  It is always good to get an early start. The traffic is always lighter.

There is a lot of activity on the farms. 

The day cleared up and there was no rain.  The temps stayed in the 60s.  I had to take some breaks just to catch my breath from fighting the wind.  I am loving this fresh air.

Off to a good start.  Now to hope for rain at the right times.  I am set because I have my rain gear.

I enjoy the different city signs.

There are still some remnants from the highway's heyday.
