Casey, Ill., claims a lot of big things: the world’s biggest wind chime, chair, mailbox, knitting needle and pencil. But that’s not all it’s got.
I attended a family wedding in Michigan in July and chose to drive from my home in Colorado and stay in sleeping cabins. In my 55 years in America, I’d never been to the Midwest; this was a great opportunity to explore. The campground clerk in Casey recommended an excellent Mexican restaurant downtown.
