Cedar Lake, Indiana and beyond on Highway 41

We're continuing north in what is now northern Indiana, on Highway 41.

Crossing the Kankakee River, which looks much more like a river than the Iroquois River did.

Now we'll take one more slight diversion off-road, to see Cedar Lake, in Cedar Lake, Indiana. This is actually a pretty big lake, and is described as a getaway vacation spot for people from the big city, which is not very much further north now. This is the Cedar Lake public access site, just off Lake Shore Drive. (You may want to remember that street name.)



North of Cedar Lake is St. John, Indiana. In a domicile with a name like that, you'd expect to find some Christian places of worship. And right here is the Shrine of Christ's Passion. Note that it has a Gift Shoppe.



Behind the marshy growth next to the road is Bingo Lake. Looks like the Streetview crew hit a bit of rain driving through here.



Here's a better view of Bingo Lake from a side road (85th Street), and on a better day. 

 

Hopefully, the trek continues tomorrow.
