We're headed to Giant City SP in southern Illinois in October, on our way to Texas. That place looks pretty cool, some good hiking and scenery around.
I don't know how far you're willing to travel, but SE Missouri has some great state parks too (JohnsonShut-Ins, Arcadia Valley area). Don't snooze on Kentucky or Arkansas either, some of the nicest SPs in the nation.
