Starved Rock Park

I did not spend Easter weekend at home in Texas, this seems normal for me now not to be with my immediate family for the holidays, since I have been on the road for so long.

I did check out a nearby park this weekend!
It's called Starved Rock.
Yes,
I took a lot of pictures!

Star Rock

It's A LOT of pictures, because I NEVER really hold back! haha
but hopefully I'll be going back to explore the rest of the park beacuse I only had a chance to explore part of it.
I am fine with this so that I would have an excuse to go back anyway! I also avoided geocaching so that I could have yet another reason to go back.
I hope that everyone had a great easter weekend!
