John visits a one room school house.

John left Wham with Minta on April 2 and travelled 51 miles to Tilden, IL. He spent the week hanging out with Minta's puppy Scout, and the two became good friends.

Minta finally had a spare moment on April 8 to take John to one of her favorite local historical spots, Charter Oak School. They travelled 14 miles from Minta's house in Tilden to a little area known as Schuline. Schuline once was a small township west of Sparta, Illinois. In Schuline there is a eight sided one room school house known as Charter Oak. The school was built in 1873 and was a function school until 1947. The locals raised funds to preserve the school for future generations and every August a festival known as Cornfest is held to raise money for upkeep. The  latitude and longitude coordinates for Charter Oak are 38 degrees 5'21"N 89 degrees 47'38"W.

Minta and John then travelled back to Minta's home, where John said his goodbyes to Scout while Minta went to work. The next morning they made the 51 miles journey back to Wham Educational Building. John total miles travelled while visiting with Minta was 130 miles. John's total travel mileage is 2224.4.
