We walked through town and bought one too many nicknacks at Something Special. I highly recommend this shop; the owner is so sweet. When she learned that we hadn't bothered to make hotel reservations for the night in Galena, she picked up the phone and tried to find us accomodation simply because she was worried we'd be left out in the cold!
What's more... as we were buying our goods, a local policeman popped his head in to say someone had left their trunk open and ask if it was intentional. Oh... my heart all but melted; does such friendliness still really exist in this world?
All I have to say to this town is ... My compliments, Elizabeth!

I am really enjoying your trip through your pictures. Your daughter sounds so much like a few of mine...I got a chuckle out of it.
A real charmer, I guess this is what keeps me in the midwest.
Small town friendliness at its best!
Beautiful town.

What a joy to find that small town America is still out there and as friendly as ever.
You and your daughter are having quite a journey experiencing real life on the road.
be well, be happy and above all be safe, Allison.
Merci de partager tes belles rencontres et expériences de ton voyage et merci d'avoir apporté un peu de cette sympathie en Suisse.
