I was surprised to recently find out that there was a waterpark hotel in the general vicinity of my favorite place in Illinois (outside of Chicago), Starved Rock State Park in Utica. Well, imagine my surprise again as I'm sifting through the Santa's Village site (see previous post) and I see that the man in the red suit and his cronies are up to building "Santa's Village Next" IN UTICA! Ack.
I'm happy for the good people of that area that will be making money and influencing people but man, I really liked the wooded oasis that it once was. It was a place to bring kids and families into nature and now it's just going to be another place to bring kids.
