| Champaign-Urbana is just down I-57 to the south. It's home to the University of Illinois. Plenty of motels & restaurants. Not much in Rantoul. |

Super 8 at Rantoul, IL. It a good older but refurbished establishment. https://www.wyndhamhotels.com/super-8/rantoul-illinois/super-8-rantoul/overview" rel="nofollow - https://www.wyndhamhotels.com/super-8/rantoul-illinois/super-8-rantoul/overview Holiday Inn Express at Rantoul, IL. It’s newer. Maybe 3-4 years? https://www.ihg.com/holidayinnexpress/hotels/us/en/rantoul/cmirt/hoteldetail?cm_mmc=GoogleMaps-_-EX-_-USA-_-CMIRT" rel="nofollow - https://www.ihg.com/holidayinnexpress/hotels/us/en/rantoul/cmirt/hoteldetail?cm_mmc=GoogleMaps-_-EX-_-USA-_-CMIRT Ive stayed in both of them in the past. Both good. Ones more coin than the other. Walmart super center is next door too. Never mind, both of the Rantoul motels are booked. If you don’t mind driving 40 miles, Tuscola, IL Holiday Inn Express has rooms cheaper than Champaign IL. Here’s a link to Tuscola. https://www.ihg.com/holidayinnexpress/hotels/us/en/tuscola/tsctb/hoteldetail" rel="nofollow - https://www.ihg.com/holidayinnexpress/hotels/us/en/tuscola/tsctb/hoteldetail |

| Planning on bringing my D17 series 4, and a 90 combine with a 3 ft header extention. Not sure what the crops is, looked like oats when I drove by there after leaving the Penfield show a couple of weekends ago. May get the other 17 with the 170 picker over there too |
