This photo was uploaded to our Explore Northeastern Illinois Flickr Pool by Jeff Lewis of Chicago Photoshop.com. It was taken in Zion's gorgeous Illinois Beach State Park. If the pleasant temperatures continue over the holidays (fingers crossed), I might have to make a trip out there.
Another good place to visit over the holidays in the region is Morton Arboretum, which is offering free admission on Thanksgiving! So you can walk off some of that turkey and pumpkin pie.
Don't forget to bring your camera and get some photos to submit to our 2009 Images of Northeastern Illinois photo contest - only one week left to submit!
