A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

Although Chicago land proper is not RV friendly, but the burbs and other counties are, thought I'd share some pics of my day trips this vacation week.

Apologies to Kathleen - I decided to run down to Urbana at the last minute. You didn't miss much at the sculpture garden. A 2 hour drive wasn't worth the 1/2 visit, but if you're ever towards Urbana, you could trike it in about the same time we did the trail at your house.

Um all I can say is WOW, you've been holding out! All these little adventures are great, so quit holding on to them & show us more often.
(Glad you had a chance to get away & enjoy the nice weather.)

Great pics! I absolutely love Japanese gardens and butterfly gardens! You've been busy!

Just found out that our local Landscape Arboretum now has a butterfly garden, so will have to go check that out. They also have a Japanese garden but it isn't very big, but is nice.

wanted to look at these last night but computer is being slow and I'm back on Verizon so don't want to
use up my time will look at them this week while at my dd's
Then I'll have some things to see in Illinois

Wonderful pics and posts, Cheryl! I really enjoyed it, thanks!
