This thread worked great when I lived on the left coast. Hoping it will have a following here too. Always good to start of with something easy.
Post your photos and maybe a hint if a challenging photo.

Ding ding, Rick got it.

Nice to see a Simi Valley, CA connection; I may have hiked that hill.

 

Where is this 'I found it!' gem? Some subtle hints here and there...

 

At an intersection..?

 

Ooh, so close John!

 

Just before the dinner..?

 

That picture wasn't taken today. Wasn't sunny at 2:00PM today.
Illinois Rt. 117 at US 24 in Eureka Ill. The building in the background is the Woodford County Courthouse.
Construction started in 1898 and dedicated in 1906. Cost $90,232.

 

But you're cheating...lol you live there...lol

 

No I'm not, Eureka is 30 miles Northeast of Peoria.

 

30 miles closer than I am...

 

Right you are!

 

My son went to Eureka College there.

 

I kind of figured it was a court house but thought that might be the diner up ahead to the right..
