That's cool. There isn't alot in that area to explore, unless you count Springfield (IL that is). I've been exploring in Springfield before, but there isn't alot compared to this Springfield.

The only place I can remember is a place called Stone Cabin. Never really impressed me much, but I would like to go back and try to find a way into some of the old coal mines.

If I remember correctly, Taylorville was a booming coal town till they tightend the restrictions for sulfur content. Perhaps worth a roadtrip...
