Brandon and Levi go to the Bell Tower


Levi and I took off from Wham and started on our trip to Mahomet Illinois. We started our drive on route 13 all the way to 57 north. After we reached Champaign we got off on 74 west until we got to Mahomet. Once we got to Mahomet we drove to the Bell Tower at Lake of the Woods. The round trip took 412.58 miles from Wham to the Bell Tower and back. After me and Levi took our picture outside of the Bell Tower we walked up six stories to the top. The Bell Tower was built in 1963 and is over 100 feet height.The tower was named after the founder of the Champaign County Forest Preserve District, H.I. Gelvin. Gelvin was on the Board of Commissioners from 1948 to 1975. The latitude of our location was 40.2064217, while our the longitude was -88.3686663. Levi has now traveled a total of 2895.64 miles.
