Well, actually I should say two highways with Civil War connections.
Today and tomorrow we will be on two highways that also have names associated with the Civil War.
Today, we took US-12 to Fox Lake to go boating. It is also called the Iron Brigade Highway, named after the unit that gained so much fame for its fighting prowess during the war.
Tomorrow, we will be driving the US Grant Highway, aka US-20, to Galena, Illinois. Galena is where Grant lived before the war and for a little after it.
