Down South in Illinois! Whether you’re looking for fine local wine, great antiques, interesting museums, one-of-a-kind-art, hunting, fishing, boating, biking, hiking, birdwatching…. Jackson County is the place to visit. Historically speaking, Jackson County, named for Andrew Jackson, celebrates its bicentennial in 2016. In addition the Illinois Legislature just named Murphysboro, the county seat, the “Barbecue Capital of Illinois” to honor its award winning pitmasters and fantastic restaurants. Murphysboro is the birthplace of Civil War General John A. Logan, founder of Memorial Day as a national holiday. He also took part when Jackson County observed one of the nation’s earliest Memorials, at Carbondale’s Woodlawn Cemetery in 1866. Carbondale, the home of Southern Illinois University [SIUC] and the Salukis, is the county’s most populous city. SIU, and many local groups, offer a continually changing selection of theater, music, museum shows, films and lectures. Smaller communities including Ava, Grand Tower and Makanda add to the mix of local orchards, vineyards and wineries, craft breweries, unique shops and locally owned restaurants.
