Superman's Home

We got an early start out of Nashville, a nice drive across Tennessee and crossed into Illinois, that was a bit of surprise, but stopping at the Illinois welcome center, we see that this is a very long state, dropping all the way down to Tennessee. Nice welcome center, nice Lincoln magazine.

We saw signs for Metropolis, and stopped after seeing the sign announcing the "Giant Superman Statute". We pulled off the freeway, it was a bit of drive. We first passed a huge "Big John" statute in front of a super market. Then . . . Superman. Cool.

Right around the corner was the police deparment. How fitting. That really large woman is taking a picture in front of a superman cutout. Now that's super.
