It was really cool because we crossed the Mighty Mississippi River by going over the longest (3347 ft) double-track, double-decked swing span bridge on earth. Galesburg, Illinois, the home of writer Carl Sandburg, TV superman George Reeves, drug store founder Charles Rudolph Walgreen and ferris wheel inventor George Washington Gale Farris. Every town seems to have a Native American name we just passed through Kewanee, Illinois which means prairie chicken. In Mendota they have the Sweet Corn Festival and its no wonder because that is the only thing we see growing in this country. An Indian name meaning crossing of trains.
