Driving around and blindly exploring the small town Mound City, Illinois. Mound City is the County Seat of Pulaski County. It is an old historic town with several old churches and beautiful grand Queen Anne Victorian Homes.

...."Mound City was incorporated in 1857 as a union of two cities: Mound City, founded by Major General Moses Marshal Rawlings, and Emporium City, a project of the Emporium Real Estate and Manufacturing Company, a group of Cincinnati and Cairo businessmen. The city took its name from a Native American mound on which guests at General Rawlings' hotel would sleep in summer, as the breezes cooled them and dispersed the mosquitoes."....
