Near Chicago, there are few attractions.
I didn't know that the Joliet prison is the prison for the first season of Prison Break. The audiences were fascinated by the brilliant key character, Michael Scofield. He is a structure engineering, who aims to rescue his brother Lincoln from the prison. This TV series brought a phenomena of watching American TV series. Since the Prison Break, it becomes more and more popular that people watch American TV series, such as Breaking Bad, Person of Interest, The Big Bang Theory, The Walking Dead, and Game of Thrones.
The Joliet Prison is located in Joliet, Illinois, which is around 40 miles from Chicago, Illinois.
The second attraction is the start point of Route 66. The Route 66 was one of the original highways in the U.S. Highway system. This route starts from Chicago, Illinois to Santa Monica, California. Route 66 severs as a primary route for those who migrated to the west.
People also tried the road trip on Route 66. It can tell from the picture that the old style recreational vehicle was modified from a bus. And the bus become a home for his driver.
Route 66 is also related with the war-related industry. During World War II, many migrations went west because of the war-related industry in California. Therefore, it is not strange to see the local newspaper that reported war progress. The World War II was end on August 15th, 1945.
During driving, we faced heavy rains.
