Father's day was very relaxing this year. Chris & I took a short trip to Freeport, IL, a small city in NW Illinois. We stayed in a Hampton Inn, it was a Hampton Inn unlike any I have been in before, the best I have ever been in. Freeport on the week-end is pretty much vacant so we had the hotel and streets just about to ourselves. There is nothing to do, but relax and that was the point of the trip. We came home relaxed and rested. Below are a couple pictures I took there.
This picture is Logan & me resting in our room.
This is a Civil War Monument in Freeport. There is on octagon on each side, 3 have a list where they fought, the fourth a bit of the history. There are bronze plaques around listing the servicemen lost.
This is a shot of the Hampton and you can see the monument to the left of the building.
This is the Lincoln-Douglas building about a block from the hotel.
And this is just one of the downtown buildings.
