Sept. 9, 2012. After a leisurely day cruising down the Illinois River through Pike and Calhoun Counties in Illinois, we landed at Illinois Riverdock Restaurant in Harden, IL. Mel's, as the restaurant is known by the locals, is famous for good family cooking and home-cooked PIES. We purchased a whole peach pie, made with fresh locally grown Calhoun County peaches and walked a few more blocks to a convenience store to purchase ice cream. Yum, yum, yum!!!
Dave cooked several of Sally's marinated chicken breasts on the new grill which were quite tasty.
The next morning we awoke to find Mel's is closed Monday so no biscuits and gravy today! Boat breakfast.
