Oh, today was absolutely beautiful - nothing could have made it any better! No rain .... and lots of sunshine. We made it to the Loy Chapel Cemetery here in Effingham, IL and were able to photograph the entire cemetery. John has been corresponding with John Loy from here since last winter. He expressed a desire to be with us when we did this cemetery so we called him and this is "John Loy" and "John Loy"!!!!! They are related but back about 4 generations.

This lady, Phebe Parks, was 112 years old and John Loy from here said he heard stories about her that she enjoyed sitting on her porch and smoking a pipe and chewing tobacco!!!

Our camping site is just a few yards from this lake. But any closer and all you see is green stuff along the edge - not very pretty.
