Cayler's Prairie

I thought twice about leaving the highway to check out Cayler's Prairie State Preserve and twice again when I saw the only facilities were a small, grass parking lot & simple park sign, but I I decided to allow myself a half-hour to explore and used every minute. There were no established trails so I just wandered through though the Preserve.  It doesn't look too big at first, but depending, on the direction and immediate topography, there were several places where all I could see is prairie.  With a little imagination, I could imagine the grasses stretching hundreds of miles across the plains, and that alone made the stop worth several times the length of my visit.
