Starved Rock State Park - Utica, IL

Rainy day. It's suppose to clear up in the afternoon or not depending on what you read.  We're supposed to hike but I think I might need a plan "B". By the time we found our site (99) with electricity, it had started to rain again, so we headed for the August Hill Winery in Utica. Deb tried a flight of whites and I tried a flight of reds with crackers and cheese, of course.  By the time we were done the sun was shining. We took a short hike to Starved Rock and Frenchman's canyon.  Although it wasn't too hot, it was muggy and Drex didn't want to go any further. Smart Dog!  Back to campsite  for dinner, some fortified grape juice (no alcohol allowed) and a Dr Who episode. In the morning we hiked into St Louis Canyon before heading to Iowa.
