Will it play in Peoria?

How will it play in Peoria?

Spent a few days in Peoria, Illinois recently. Here's a collage of photos.

Clockwise from the top left
Two Takins at the Peoria Zoo, a bronze statue in the Luthy Botanical Gardens, an emu at the zoo, the king chess piece from a multi piece sculpture by Jaci Willis in the Botanical Gardens, a comical representation of asparagus by Peoria-area artist Don Kettleborough from his Incredible Edibles series, a Winter Wren in the Botanical Gardens, and a floral sculpture in the Gardens.

Peoria Sunset

A short trip to Peoria yielded this pretty sunset. I liked the puffs of clouds. It was taken through a screen so there is are faint cross-hatches in the photo.
