I complete the journey through Illinois and enter Missouri
| Funks Grove |
where they make the best tasting Maple Sirup
| Dixie Truckers Home |
Time for lunch
| Tall Paul muffler man |
In Atlanta, IL. Adapted to advertise a hot dog joint, which doesn't seem to be there any more
| A painted mural in Atlanta, IL |
| Another muffler man .... |
.... this time, sans muffler, or anything else for that matter.
| Carlinville court house |
The million dollar courthouse
| The Chain of Rocks Bridge |
spanning the Mississippi between Illinois and Missouri. One of the few bridges that changes direction part way across.
| Crossong into Missouri, on foot |
The bridge can now only be crossed on foot or cycle
| St Louis in the distance |
You can just make out the famous Gateway Arch. Sadly the closest I got to it.
| Fire truck |
For some reason this old fire truck is parked in the middle of the bridge. There is no explanation as to why.
