May trip...Day Five


May 30th 2009

Last breakfast at the Dari Barr. Biscuits and Gravy of course!We were driving on I57 heading north when I pulled off the road to drive into the town of Benton where we came upon an old Bed and Breakfast where George Harrison of the Beatles once stayed. There's even a little museum inside dedicated to the Beatles. We drove to Whittington and found Burton's Cafe which is home of the Famous White Pie! Wow that was worth it! It's also near Rend Lake which reminds me of Lake Geneva with all the boats out there. A pit stop in Mt Vernon to get a photo op with the Uniroyal Gal at Stan The Tire Man store. Weird but interesting. We stopped in Tuscola and had an ice cream soda at this Candy/Soda Fountain kitchen called Fleshor's. The service and the desserts were very yummy! Then home. That's it!
