You could begin the video in the suite, and give us a small tour of it, like you did with the Short Circuit house (one of my all time favorites).

    Iowa native here, Galena & Dubuque are two of my favorite towns. A few places I recommend:
    Grab a burger at Paul’s Tavern in Dubuque - impressive taxidermy collection.
    Eat a Taco Pizza at Happy Joe’s In Dubuque- yes taco pizza is an Iowa cuisine & it’s fantastic.
    Effigy Mounds National Monument just north of Dubuque
    Amana Colonies just west of Cedar Rapids
    And if you’re able to I can’t recommend enough the House on the Rock west of Madison, WI - one of the most unique attractions I’ve ever experienced.
    Loving these videos & seeing you explore the heartland!

    Galena is architecturally and topographically the most beautiful town in Illinois and one of the most beautiful in the country.
    Galena was one of the hometowns of U.S. Grant and both the house Grant lived in before the Civil War and the one he lived in after the Civil War are still standing.
    Grant’s post Civil War house has been preserved by the state of Illinois and is open for tours.
    The house he lived in before the Civil War is privately owned and can be rented out as a guesthouse as can many of the other historic houses in town.
    There is an excellent U.S. Grant and local history museum in Galena.
    The DeSoto House Hotel, even though it was renovated and modernized in the 1980s, is still fascinating as the oldest operating hotel in Illinois.
    I appreciate that non-guests are allowed to explore the DeSoto House Hotel, which I have done myself.
    I like to make the 5 hour drive from where I live in Southern Illinois near St. Louis to Galena every October when the fall foliage and weather are nice.

    Grant's house is painted the same as Lincoln's. Springfield, yeah, that's where you need to. Peru and Carus across from the Westclox Factory,
    Sometimes there are a couple of ways to get more out of faded advertisements like waiting for a rainy day or try things like UV or Polarizing filters or Photoshop.

We used to go to his house in Dearborn, Michigan cuz he owned the family house we grew up in but after his demise we started the travelling sisters club n the three of us n our two nieces all get together n travel n hang out throughout Michigan every August for the past 2 yrs n I look forward to it ever so!!! Being with your family makes it much more enjoyable than by yourself!!! Wish someone would vlog Michigan's MANY travel places like Frankenmuth, Mackinaw Island n Mackinaw City, N all the little roadside attractions that are STILL thriving on the way up to these places, n that is just the Lower Peninsula!!! The Upper Peninsula across the Mackinaw Bridge is chock full of places to visit, like the glass bottom boat shipwreck tours on the Great Lakes, the Taquemenon Falls in both Upper n Lower Peninsulas, the Bishop Baraga Shrine, the Copper Mines, to just name a few!!! The small towns are everywhere!!!

    I also have a GREAT fondness for what you do amusingly call "Ghost signs" painted on the sides of historic old town buildings at one time, n left EXACTLY as they once were for us to enjoy n try n figure out what they say!!! This town of Galena, Illinois is AWESOME!!! Sooo full of history sooo well preserved n documented!! Excellent video subject!!

    Carol Burnett recreated the Drape Dress in one of her skits. It's hilarious.

    Love that you are in my state Adam: Would love to see you come to Woodstock Illinois and do a video of where they shot Groundhog Day--and a really short scene from Planes Trains and Autos.
