August 5: Toulon, IL

We stayed at a private RV park, thanks to Larry, Galen's high school classmate.

Our site.  There are four or five lakes in the park and you can spot one of them in the background.  This whole area is a reclaimed mining area.

The reason we are in Toulon:  Galen's 50th high school reunion.

We had lunch at Connie's Restaurant in Toulon and this basketball photo was part of a collage of high school photos.  Galen is #30, second from the right.

Toulon had a population of about 1200 when Galen was growing up there and the farming community is still about that same size today.
