Hawaii
Visitors Bureau |
 This
is the official Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau. It looks
like there's been a consolidation of Hawaiian tourism websites, because
this one redirects you to GoHawaii. They might as well not
have bothered, because there's pathetically little real information on
this website. |
| Big
Island (Go Hawaii) |
The
BigIsland.org website also redirects to GoHawaii. |
Illinois
| Great
Lakes Information Network |
 The
Great Lakes contain one fifth of the world's fresh water and cover more
than 94,000 square miles. This website is full of such information,
presented in an easy to access format. |
| Volo
Bog |
 One
of my favorite nature destinations in Illinois is Volo
bog, the only quaking bog in the state, complete with carnivorous
pitcher plants. Boardwalks and a 3 mile trail around the bog
allow you to see the birds and insects and make this a rewarding destination.
This Illinois Department of Natural Resources is an excellent one-page
summary of the history of Volo Bog, what you'll find there, and how to
get there. |
| Wikipedia:
Volo Bog |
The
Wikipedia article on Volo Bog has good basic information about the history
and biology of the bog. |

The
official website of the Illinois tourism bureau has improved quite a bit
over the last few years. The website provides quite a bit of
information about attractions in the state, and the
Illinois
website links page has entries for some of the state's excellent museums
and other venues. Last visited in January of 2008. |
