Helle Road, Ellisville, IL

Helle Road runs through the rolling hills of the Spoon River valley just south of Ellisville, IL. In this view from last fall, the lightly traveled gravel path disappears into the far hillside amidst a forest of colorful trees.

Cameron, IL 61423

With all the recent news regarding the closings of post offices around the country due to extreme budget shortfalls, I figured it was time to start posting a few more of my Post Office series to the blog again. Many of the post offices whose photo I’ve already posted to the blog are on the government’s list for closure, including Cameron, IL. I realize that I’ve already posted a photo of the Cameron post office to the blog, but it just happened that I was back through there this summer and managed another photo of this standard old post office building.

Lightning Bugs on the 4th of July

To me there is nothing more symbolic of summer in the Midwest than lightning bugs. They’re almost like a mini-fireworks display over the fields. So what better day to post this image than the 4th of July?
