Galena, Illinois is one of my favorite historic towns. If you ever get a change to visit, I think you would agree with me. When you go to Galena, you almost step back in time. The downtown area is unblemished with chain stores. About the only thing that puts you back to reality are all the cars parked throughout the town. Too bad they couldn’t relegate them to a distant parking lot. Galena is the final home of Ulysses S. Grant and his home is open for tours.
We spent hours walking the town and enjoying its scenic beauty. I have probably taken 200 pictures of the town and yet never run out of something new to photograph each time I go.
