I was given a copy of the Northwest Quarterly magazine because of an article on Civil War Round Tables, but upon reading that article, I looked at the rest of it and there are many things in it of interest to those of us who like to go places, especially places in history. It's just something about Road Tripping Through History with me.
The magazine focuses on things located in the northern part of Illinois with side trips to Wisconsin.
The most recent one had a page with information about three interesting things to see.
** Garrison School Lofts in Rockford, Illinois. How'd you like to live in an old school that opened in 1887.
** DeKalb County's Civil War Memorial (Illinois) in front of the court house. A statue to Union soldiers, dedicated in 1897.
** The Riviera in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, right on the shore of Geneva Lake. Unique architecture dedicated in 1833.
