Nice! I've never been to Waterfall Glen. Based on the website that I found of the park, it looks like a nice place to take some great pictures.

Great shots once again!
I see LeRoy Oaks Forest Preserve barn, a shot of the Rock River from the Blackhawk statue, am I correct?
Also, where was that railway pic taken? Very nice.

You are correct, Steve-o! Also, the railway pic was taken in Oregon, IL, near Lake LaDonna, 1302 S. Harmony.
Here is a pic that I took in May 2008 of a trail at White Pines Forest State Park in Mount Morris, IL:

Thanks, Steve-o! I'm not familiar with Flagg Road, but I've driven through parts of Dixon, Grand Detour, Oregon, Polo, Mount Morris, and a few other surrounding towns.
The Rock River Valley is beautiful with so many areas to take some great pictures. You lived in a very scenic part of Illinois.
Here are a few pics that I took on January 16th this year in Morrison, IL. I had just received my first digital camera as a birthday gift!

Thought I'd share this poster of Chicago that I just designed. The original photo was shot from the far side of Millenium Park looking back at Michigan Avenue.
