Fall Break

Bradley University had its Fall Break this past few days; the rest of my family did not.  I got a lot of tasks at least partway done so that is good.  On Saturday we went on part of the Spoon River Scenic Drive and then met the Blands at the New Salem historical park in the evening where the activities were done by candlelight.  On Monday, I drove up to Matthiessen State Park for a couple of hours. The place was busy but fun.  The leaves are starting to turn at all of these locations, but will probably look better in a week or two.  We have not had any frost yet.
