While in Iowa I’ve had some good Iowa beer. Millstream, Backpocket Brewing, Singlespeed, Exile brewing. Just really nice local beers in different styles.
Iowa has some special licensing for native breweries and wineries which seems to incent their development. Does IL have same?

Back from my trip covering 39 Illinois counties in three days.
There’s a beauty in our farmland a lot of us dismiss as “boring.” I actually found driving through miles and miles of perfectly lined fields to be therapeutic. Watching the Sun take an eternity to set was beautiful.

Really don’t like the U of I football team apparently going back on their contract with Peoria Charter to use an Iowa busing company. These are Illinois taxpayer dollars and the whole story of how they fell out seems petty and weird on the U of I football team’s part.
