12 Fun Ways to Have the Most Rockford Day Ever
It's going to be one of those days- a day where you find yourself sitting at your desk, staring out the window; daydreaming of how you'd be spending your day if you had taken the day off. Oh the places you would go, the things you would see and all the things you'd get done. But, you decided to go to work because you don't get paid until Friday and you don't exactly have the funds to spend an exciting day in the city.
Who said you need to leave Rockford to enjoy a fun day off? OnlyInYourState.com put together a list of "Ways to Have the Most Illinois Day Ever" and it's a great list, but there's only so much time in a day and if you're like me, you don't want to spend precious time in the car- you want to make the best of every minute, every hour. So instead of having the most "Illinois Day Ever"; here's how to have the best Rockford day ever.
1. Grab a cup of coffee from the Rockford Roasting Company.
