Allerton Park
Here's just a very few pictures from our delayed anniversary get-away trip to Robert Allerton Park southwest of Champaign, Illinois. We spent two nights at the guest house (a seven bedroom home) and were there from 6-29 until 7-1. Had a great time. We love Allerton Park, a 5,000 acre estate donated to the University of Illinois.
The first picture is of the Allerton's 50-room mansion taken across from his private lake; next is the guest house we stayed at. Third is a picture of a den with the painting of Robert Allerton (age 24) on the wall. Fourth is one of the many beautiful flowers growing on the grounds and the fifth is of the Allerton's stable.
