This is one of my favorite places anywhere and at this time of year, it just can't be beat for heart warming beauty. This is known as Elkhart Hill and in central Illinois always seemed like height to us. The archway over the road is rather unique. I believe it was recently in danger of being demolished and the town's people fought to keep it.
While we were living in Mt. Pulaski, IL from 1986 until 1994, I passed under this arch every time I drove from our house to my parents' house.
Just before going under the arch heading east is Elkhart's cemetery which houses this cosy little chapel. One year we attended a Christmas concert here and it is a fond memory for me.
