We drove on Old Route 66 in Springfield Illinois. We looked at the Capital as we drove by since there was not a parking space for an RV to be found.

Stephen and I chose Springfield as the focus of our first post-lockdown meeting (June 2020), with the aim of spending an hour or so seeing how the area was being transformed by the creation of a new university campus. One feature that hadn't changed much was the Freemasons Arms, still boasting this flaking M&B painted lettering.
