Yeah I bet!

Anything that resembles a beach along the Illinois River is actually a mud flat. LOL

If we wanted to go to a beach the closest one would be in the Chicago area and the governor has them all closed until the virus is over.

Good evening Illinois and Ford Truck Enthusiasts, Ken, Sean, and Rod!

Had a beautiful sunny day here in the River City today, topped out at 66° but rain is on its way tonight and no warmer temps till late next week.

I hope you all had a great day at your house?
