   Went and did one of our favorite hikes when we're at home yesterday.   
   One of the Winnebago County Forest Preserves that has a nice camping   
   area.  It's set in a grove of old and very tall white pines.  It also   
   has primitive camping sites, around ten I think, right down along the   
   river.  In the warmer months this place stays pretty busy as there is so   
   much to do with a playground for the kiddies, good hiking, great fishing   
   right along the river, and kayaking and tubing are very popular on the   
   slow moving Sugar River.  I've fished at the place several times.   
      
   Yesterday temps around here were still pretty warm at about 60F, but it   
   has been getting into the lower 40's and even upper 30's at night.   
   There were about 10 RV's and trailers up in the campground, and 4 tents   
   set up in the primitive area.  Cold and rainy overnight and today, so   
   these must be pretty hardy folks.  Two of them were families with little   
   kids.  I thought it was pretty cool they were willing to do this for the   
   family as the kids were having a great time.  Memories made!
