Lock and Dam 13

We always head to this dam to see the eagles in the winter. Is there anything to see there now? We stopped there a few years ago in the summer and saw white pelicans. Would they be there this time of the year? Thanks!

Town school using trailers

What’s sad is this is considered a top school district in central Illinois. This is the junior high in Mahomet. The town has turned down multiple funding opportunities. Many rich people live here. The excuse is “fixed income” so can’t afford. Come on babes,any of us are fixed. I don’t work on commissions. The junior high started at one trailer and are up to 3.

Uber/taxi/driver in Galena

Hello all! I wanted to post this in the r/Galena thread but it looks like the last post there was 5 years ago…

Does anyone know of any car services or uber or local taxis in Galena, or have you been recently and had success with any of these?

I am visiting with friends in a few weeks and we would love to go downtown but don’t want to drink and drive home. Thank you!

Looking for Residential Mental Health Care in Illinois. Can You Help Me Out?

Hi, I am looking for residential mental health care, and I thought that going to the Illinois sub would be a better way of finding centers near me. I have OCD, Depression, and PTSD. I am preferably looking for something with a higher rating. Thank you very much.
