[May 09, 2022]    Spring has sprung and after a long winter and a few years of isolating it is great to get out and about.

A short drive in any direction affords an eyeful of beauty as trees and shrubs are awakening with shocks of spring-green tipped trees and shrubbery, wide expanses filled with vivid green grasses, patches of ground are hallowed in purple and yellow blooms spreading over the country side.

To Lincoln's south, Elkhart merchants in the downtown have raked and swept walkways and corners, sprucing up the charming downtown.

Last weekend Severe weather threatened the annual Elkhart Spring Fling. But merchants will still welcome you with shops in the downtown open Wednesday through Saturday each week.

You will find wonderful nostalgic and new trend treasures at the Wild Hare, Country Bumpkin, Bird Song and other shops. The new Illinois Products on the corner offers the best in foods and artistic products that are grown or made in Illinois; and everywhere you will find great prices and welcoming merchants and personable service.

So enjoy a scenic trip through the country and put Elkhart as one of your places to stop a while.
