Chicagoland – especially the NW burbs which houses the Lake County – has the most amazing forest preserves. So beautiful and so much to do – and less calories than Oberweis chocolate ice cream;). Hehehehehe…..

Thank you so much. I think the tiny barn is so cute. I have seen bluebirds flying in and out of there:)
