Sightseeing

Path through what used to be the steel mills. It's a nice walk and the ruins from the steel mills are interesting. It can be a bit isolated. Do not go alone.

Classic Joliet. Blues Brothers. Don't get your hopes up, though, you can not go inside. Still an interesting free stop to walk around the outside. Rough neighborhood, if you are going to get out of the car, only go in the daytime with a friend.

Entertainment & Activities

Its literally in our backyard. Smooth packed limestone trail on an old railroad. Great place to get in a quick walk, bike ride or run. It is just around the corner at Sweitzer and Cherry Hill. Or depening on the season, you can walk through the feild behind the house, ask Anne where her secret path is.
