Fox Ridge SP Illinois
This park is near Charleston Ill. Some of the drive here was in a corn valley. 10 foot tall corn on both sides of a narrow rural farm road. This property was initially developed by the CCC in the 30s. There are some trails that we will take a look at tomorrow. There is an anemic river that flows through the park and a 13 acre lake that formed behind a CCC dam. There is also a winery not too far away. I didn't see any grapes growing anywhere on the way In here. Drinking wine in Illinois is probably like eating oysters in Arizona.
