Cincinnati to Carlock

2008 West--35th Anniversary, Illinois, Indiana, Road Trip, States

We broke camp in Winton Woods and headed for the Indiana border. Once we crossed the border we decided to get off the interstate. Our route took us through Columbus, Indiana, which is known for its excellence in mid-century modern architecture. At the Columbus Area Visitors Center we discovered some wonderful examples of Chihuly glass! At the border we stopped and asked for advice as to the best thing to see in Illinois then headed for our campsite at the Kamp Komfort in Carlock, Illinois. We got the same campsite as we camped at our first night out 35 years ago!
