if you think 3.5 hrs is bad, check out how far a bunch of us will be driving for the dragon (see sig)! i can't remember, but it's gotta be around 10 - 12 hrs or something...each way. nope i don't live in des plaines, just work there...i live on the northside of chicago.

We're getting close to the date of this drive - Saturday May 5.

Anyone that's coming, lets plan on rolling out at 10 AM. That should put us back in Springfield again between 5-6 PM.

Meet at Starbucks at 3412 Freedom Dr, Springfield, IL. That's in a shopping area along the West side of S. Veterans Parkway, less than a mile North of interstate 72. There's a McDonalds next to it. This is in the SW corner of Springfield.

If you're coming from the North or South on I55, the fastest way to reach Starbucks is to go West on I72, get off at S. Veterans Parkway then go North.

My cell phone number is 217-855-5743.

Roll call.....?

Steve

As much as I want to go, there is no way I can make it there by 10 am. I live 4.5 hours away.
