Tuesday
-- to Rantoul
Our plan was to either fly to Mackinac Island, at
the top of the Great Lakes, or to fly to St. Louis, to spend a day at the
Six Flags theme park. The weather would decide our course.
Neither plan worked. By the time we got off
work Tuesday night, the weather was bad in *both* directions, so we
defaulted to "Plan C", which amounted to "let's see how far east we can get
before running out of daylight. We didn't make it far -- only to
Rantoul, Illinois, before storms forced us to land for the night. Here
are a few pictures from that short flight:
