Yep, Mackinaw it is. I am thinking that we kick off the festivities around 2pm (July 22nd). If anyone is bored and wants to show early thats fine. I will have hamburgers, buns, and soda. If you want something besides burgers and brats, or are after adult beverages, you should probably bring it
 Lawn chairs would be good as well if you have them...Now for the directions: From I-155/Rt. 9 (Tremont, Pekin, Springfield) Take the rt.9 exit heading east for 7 miles Turn left on Mackinaw road (also known as Dee-Mack rd.) Go .5 miles to the stop sign and turn left on Fast ave. Turn right on to Main st. at the next stop sign (also known as Dee-Mack rd.) Drive about a quarter of a mile and Tulip Dr. will be on the right. I am the last house on the right, 207 Tulip Dr. (yellow and green) From I-155/Broadway (Peoria, Morton) Take the Broadway exit on I-155 and head east. (Left if coming from Morton.) After crossing over the interstate turn right on 4th avenue. (A left turn on 4th is available, ignore it.) Drive on 4th for about a mile and enjoy the corn fields. At the stop sign (T intersection) turn left onto Allentown rd. Drive ~7 miles on Allentown rd. to the next stop sign (T interection). Turn right onto Dee-Mack rd., put your seat back, and roll a couple of miles to Mackinaw. Just as you get to the Welcome to Mackinaw sign turn left onto Tulip Dr. I am the last house on the right, 207 Tulip Dr. (yellow and green) From I-55/Rt. 9 (Bloomington) Take the Market St. exit heading west for "8 mile" (Market St. is also Rt. 9) *Be careful* After you have driven the 8 miles, Rt. 9 turns to the right. Turn just after the flashing yellow light, staying on Rt. 9. In another 2 miles follow the road left on Rt. 9, do not go straight into Danvers. That is the last tricky part, continue heading west on Rt. 9 for 10 miles. After entering Mackinaw, turn right on Mackinaw road (also known as Dee-Mack rd.) Go .5 miles to the stop sign and turn left on Fast ave. Turn right on to Main st. at the next stop sign (also known as Dee-Mack rd.) Drive about a quarter of a mile and Tulip Dr. will be on the right. I am the last house on the right, 207 Tulip Dr. (yellow and green) If you find yourself navigationally challenged during the trip give me a call (309)359-6030. -------------------- Fast & Furious on the outside...DSM under the hood!!!

As long as people are hanging out enjoying themselves the gathering will continue. I have enough wood for a fire if it comes to that. I would definately say however, that there is a risk that some cruising may commence (destination Hooter's???).
Since my place is on your way home just stop by if you see more than just my truck and SUV. -------------------- Fast & Furious on the outside...DSM under the hood!!!

Yeah Bud, it sounds like you have a little bit of work ahead of yourself. Sucks to hear that man, especially right after you get things put back together for this season. Stay at it and see if you can get back on the road before winter!
