For Don and Dave
Don Friedman and Dave Winnett were terribly disapointed when we we changed our route and skipped their little corner of Illinois. In Don's case it was a Quoin. As a consolation to them, we present this fine view of the Illinois River. We waited this [yesterday] morning while this barge passed under the drawbridge, the shadow of which is visible at bottom.
It is a crisp fall day in Illinois with the temperature about 60 and a good north wind. We crossed the Mississippi this [Thurs] morning and now have arrived at Jacksonville.
