Wendy suggested going for a hike on Thanksgiving morning. I thought that was a splendid idea. We picked a trail we'd never been to before, the High Point Conservation Area, which has the highest elevation in the county, and, to be nerdly specific, has "the highest glaciated point in Illinois at 1,189’ above sea level".
It was a nice hike, although cold. The wind chill was in the upper teens. We saw and heard several flocks of sandhill cranes which was fun.
