But, I'm not. I'm from Illinois

I bin there --twice.  Should have stuck with once--came in from KY over the 
Ohio River down by Cairo over the Mississippi into MO.  I don't think I 
shifted gears in Illinois just seemed to be a place to buy cigarettes, booze 
and fireworks. Total duration maybe 5 minutes.
The 2nd venture was 5 days later when I left Hot Springs Arkansas with the 
Frenchman navgating.  We were a stones throw from the Texas border when we 
reversed course.
Came into Il on I-57 got fuel and dropped off the Frenchman at Mount Vernon 
and left via I-70.  It was unimpressive as motorcycle country (like 
southwestern Ontario), but it did have a lot of excellent farm land , dead 
deer and cops.  I do remember the Frenchman letting me slide into the lead 
(radar blocker) as we entered the state.
Shoulda rode Hwy 64 through TN with Earl.
