SPRINGFIELD, Ill. —Â Kim Keyser of rural Wayne County was keeping a positive outlook Saturday as she looked for salvageable items inside her water-logged Airstream camper at the Illinois State Fairgrounds.
The Keysers’ Airstream was one of 54 campers in Happy Hollow that were uninhabitable after a Friday evening thunderstorm dropped more than 5 inches of rain in two hours and caused extensive flooding throughout the fairgrounds. Water on the west end of Happy Hollow where the Airstream was parked was estimated at 4 to 5 feet.
