Walking along Illinois Prairie Path in Wheaton on April 19, 2016
I am so glad that I got to go to the Chicago area along with having a chance to walk along the Illinois Prairie Path in Wheaton, which is a place where I enjoyed going back when I was 10 and 11 years old and that was back in the days before I had any pubic hair and that was back in the days when Chicago & Northwestern Trains and I really miss those green and yellow Chicago & Northwestern Trains because trains are fucking cool! Actually, trons are fucking cool!

Prairie Trail (Southbound) Genoa City, WI to Fox River Trail in Algonquin, IL - Part 1
The Prairie Trail—not to be confused with the Illinois Prairie Path—runs border-to-border, entirely within McHenry County, Illinois, and is managed by the McHenry County Conservation District. It is built on an alignment of the old Chicago and North Western Railroad, taking a separate course only for short passages through two cities and a natural area. It sometimes runs in a rail-with-trail configuration, alongside still active railways.
On the trail, there are some rather long rural stretches without access to water. But the trail also passes through the towns of Richmond, McHenry, Crystal Lake and Algonquin, where one can find restaurants, bike shops, and other services.
