We made our annual pilgrimage to the Kickapoo River Valley again, this time for the last full week in August. Having a full week away (during which I literally never checked email) was such a blessing.
Watching Tilly run around on this 600 acre farm was bittersweet for me...she got to have a glimpse of how I grew up, but it was just a glimpse.
We saw more cars go by our house the first 3 minutes we were home than we saw the full week we were there.
This year we stayed in the northeastern corner of the valley, near Hillsboro, east of Wildcat Mountain State Park and the Kickapoo Valley Reserve. We had a 4 bedroom old farm house with the land all to ourselves (including some trails to the top of the bluffs). It was very peaceful.
