Geocache Description:

You deserve a rest on your travels through Illinois!  Take a few minutes to stretch and find a cache.


This is a well maintained rest stop along I80 westbound.  You are 46 miles into Illinois from Indiana and 117 miles from Iowa.

Stay in the rest area. The cache is not through the waste water treatment facility!

I have traveled all 2902 miles of this interstate from New Jersey to California.  I have many fond memories on this road.  One of the most memorable trips was when I drove with my daughter to California.  She was continuing her college education on the west coast.  We enjoyed each other's company the entire trip and were fortunate to eat the "best" barbecue in North Platte and the "best" mexican in Salt Lake City.  Who would have guessed.  We were truly lucky!

Please share your memories of I80 in your "found it" post.  Bring your own pen.

Safe travels and happy geo hunting!
