Galena, IL

Galena is one of my favorite spots.  Luckily, Ang likes it too.  It's a beautiful town in a perfect setting.  There is history galore and a great variety of period architecture.  It's almost like being in New England.  Ang would want me to add that there is an abundance of shopping as well.  Not Target mind you, but a plethora of small specialty shops.  You can gain 10lbs. easily in one visit between the cheese shops, cookie shops, ice cream fountains, and chocolate shops.  So far we've managed to avoid all of those, but we usually stop for some excellent Italian at Vinnie Vanucci's (see pics). The ambiance is great and so is the food!   Anyway, here are a few pictures from one of our recent trips.
