Eunice and I set out to discover another city and state. This time we renamed Alton, Illinois as Cluckton, Illhenois. After checking in at the Holiday Inn (great atrium lobby) we were off to have lunch at My Just Desserts in the downtown area.
We were not happy to hear that one of their best sellers is a chicken salad sandwich but loved the decor.
What better place to view any possible relatives than the Riverlands Migratory Bird Sanctuary. We crossed the Clark Bridge and Patty Hagen showed us around. We observed but it really wasn't the season for bird watching. The building that we were in was new. Perhaps we will come back there and pose for the humans.
It seems that Cluckton has a reputation for hauntings. We're not afraid of ghosts. We stopped by the remains of the "Alton" Prison and heard tales.
Time for dinner at Gentelin's on Broadway. We had a bowl of smoked pork and wild rice soup. Tasty!
Resting up for tomorrow.
