Billy,
I'd love to make arrangement to meet you. I'm about 1/2 way between Effingham and Aurora, and about 40 miles West of your "flight path." (10 miles West of Peoria)
As I looked at the family schedule for the weekend, I just don't think it will work this time, but if this is a track your life brings you on from time to time, please keep me in mind and give me a head's up the next time you're coming through.
I'd really love to meet a few of the Trad Ganger's I see posting here, and I'm sorry it can't work to meet up with you!
Hope your trip goes well,
Daryl
