Quick Trip To The Midwest...

We spent last last week in St. Charles and Geneva, Illinois at a lovely wedding on a beautiful farm. I had never been to (heard of?) these two riverside suburban Chicago towns. What struck me was how nice everyone was. Dare I say Midwest nice? They were lovely, friendly, open, helpful and very different from many folks on the coasts – the northeast coast at least. 😬
 
Some high points in St. Charles:
 
The Fine Art Show:  
 

 



Absolutely yummy Grilled Skirt Steak Tacos and Guac at La Mesa in downtown St. Charles: 
 
 
The Hotel Baker, Ēkwabet Statue and St. Charles Fire Station:
 
 

 
 

 
 
 
Geneva is lovely too. Cute stuff in gift shops:

Great brunch at Nosh in Geneva:
 

 
 
 
 
Fox River sights:

 
 

 
 Next stop...Oak Park, Illinois with oodles of Frank Lloyd Wright houses...🏡
