Places to go for one month anniversary? (champaign/urbana illinois)?


Travel Info
Hello all!, it's our 1 month anniversary (may 18th) and my girlfriend is taking it very seriously, and wants to do something special.

I need help on places to go/things to do near or around champaign/urbana, illinois. A 1-2 hour drive is as far as we want to really travel at the most (so no chicago). I'm not from around here, so i'm clueless, any information gladly welcomed!!!!!!!!!!!

Travel Tips
For our one year anniversary, my girlfriend and I went to:

Outback Steakhouse
2402 N Prospect Ave
Champaign, IL 61822

Champaign/Urbana is a college town. There are several dance clubs and bars. When I went to school there, my favorite night club was Highdive and my favorite bar was Boltini Lounge.

If your girlfriend is a student there, you can round up her friends and go play paintball. Check out:

If you are completely and utterly broke, there are nice camping sites near by Indiana border. There are plenty of places to go fishing if your girlfriend is into that sort of thing.

take her to Indianapolis, there are good restaurants, good music, the zoo is great. Go for a picnic at Allerton Park in Monticello, (25 miles away) and visit the little shops in downtown. Go to the new Abe Lincoln museum (and all the LIncoln sites) in Springfield and eat downtown by the old state capitol. Come down to Grafton and listen to a band at the confluence of the MS and IL rivers (at the Loading Dock bar and grill), visit all the wineries and antique shops then go to Pierre Marquette state park. There are lots of stuff to do in C-U too. Use your imagination instead of your wallet and she should appreciate it more.
Take her to a hotel and wear her out!!!!
