Woodstock, Illinois - I got you, Babe!

I took a few friends to visit Woodstock, Illinois recently. I call it the "Groundhog Day" tour. 

In addition, to viewing the various locations where the movie was filmed over 20 years ago, we viewed the inside of the City Opera House. 



Within there is some beautiful stained glass windows. Also, we saw a plaque in the auditorium which informed that Orson Welles had his theatrical start on this stage.








The square is quaint, the buildings are historic, the stores are fun. Stand in the gazebo and hum "I got you, Babe." It's well worth the visit.
