| bump!!! My roommate and I were talking about this the other night. Thought maybe id revive the thread again... nows the time we should start planning something. There should be a route, taking back country roads in the first post i made about this last fall, but if anyone from down that way might know a different, more scenic or fun route, feel free to make the suggestion. I think it would be really cool if we could get a huge turn out for this drive during october and the fall color changes.

| Looking at the calendar, hearing what everyone had to say on a day, its looking like probably Sunday October 9th or Sunday October 16th would be the best days to plan this, for when the colors are at their peak. | |

| 9th would be better I think, I have a wedding on the 14th and not sure if I will be recovered by that Sunday. Plus you can use the 16th as a rain/ back up date. | |

| sounds good to me... October 9th it is... meet up in the late morning? like maybe 11, and then roll out at 1130? google maps says the drive is like 2 hour and 25 min from Orland Park, however, we might be able to set up a different meeting point. However since im not from down that way, I dont really know where a good place to meet up would be. | |

| I think that would be awesome and no need for a place to eat we could cook out at the park as well as make a fire if it is chilly! Hell next summer should plan a cruise there and camp over night drink some beers!! | |

| thanks crystal!! Here is the Google Maps Directionsfrom the route I took last year. For a meeting spot, Ill suggest the Sams Club at I-80 and Larkin (where we were supposed to meet for the Morris Cruise Night). Although if anyone has a different suggestion on a meeting spot or even a slightly different route, im all for everyones opinion. If nobody comes up with anything, we'll just stick to the current planned route, and meet up at the Sams Club. Im thinking we meet up around 11 am, and roll out around 1130am. Google says this route will take 2.5 hours, which would put us at the park around 2pm. Plenty of time to walk around, take in the sights, as well as have some good photo ops. | |
