Galena, IL Spring Break – Prairie du Sac, WI Photographer

One of the favorite things that we love to do as a family is travel. With a pile of audio books from the library and a destination in mind we are ready for a road trip. We’ve gone as far as New Mexico, Utah or Virginia or as close as neighboring states. This year we decided to do a Galena, IL spring break. This picturesque old town, just two hours away was our get away destination last week. This wasn’t our first time there, but if you happen to visit it you’ll see that it’s easy to fall in love with Galena, with the beauty, the history and keep coming back. During our brief visit there, we found time each day to take to the hilly and windy back roads and enjoy the emerging wonders of Spring – green shoots and flowers everywhere, and even admire birds soaring high over the mighty Mississippi. Hopefully the images below inspire you to spend a few days in this cute town as well, you won’t regret it 🙂

Just a few pretty buildings in historic downtown and there are many, many more

Spring has definitely arrived!

We found this picture perfect farm while driving on Jo Daviess County back roads. The only thing that’s missing is a cornfield, I guess I’ll just have to find it again in the summer 🙂

Here again a small corn field in the foreground would be nice 🙂 but I love the effect the smoke does…

always barefoot, whenever they can…

I noticed how that tree branch would make a perfect frame for a picture and forced my family to do a family portrait. With some help from self-timer here is what came out 🙂
