Bloomington/Normal here. Haven't been on the site for quite awhile but it'd be fun to do another get-together once it turns nice again.

How do you like Antioch? My grandmother lives there and I am up visiting usually a couple times a year. I normally don't have my car up there though because I usually go up with a couple family members.

I'm from Mahomet, we should do something like Cars & Coffee in the springtime. Champaign is a nice central meeting point for a lot of smaller towns. I would love to meet up with fellow LS1tech folks.

I'm from St. Joe, but I don't get to spend to much time in central Il any more. I go to schools down in Carbondale, and last summer and this coming summer I live in Detroit for internships.

I've gone two years and it's all ways a blast. There's one guy that travels all the way from Alberta Canada and a few from upstate New York plus others from all over the country.
