Ok, it's been over a year since I was last able to travel due to pandemic restrictions and precautions. I'm in Chicago area to cheer on my nephew who is running the Chicago marathon tomorrow. Had to visit the Barn Owl again. No kidding, if not for family, it alone is almost worth the drive up. Again, plenty of great seasonal choices at excellent prices and quality that cannot be matched by big-box chain stores. Late season vegetables, fall mums, hay bales, corn stalks, and literally thousands of pumpkins and gourds to select from. Lots of cute Halloween themed decorative items. My wife

Great staff. This is where we get the propane tank on our RV. We can fit our 40ft RV in their facility.
