As for the afternoon/ evening time, I’m looking at doing dinner in down town Naperville, because of free and ample parking.
We are aiming for Lou Malnati’s for dinner, what I’m hoping to do is get a head count and keep every one at a $20 budget and do pizza, drinks and the tip. So I’m gonna need a head count of people interested. RSVP here or on Facebook, I’ll have a post near the end of the week with who is all going! !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

I now lend this event creedibility. I will attend.
I will bring books etc but the real important thing is I will be bringing my 2002 Ford Explorer,
the subject of so many
of my podcasts and columns. Come see what a 14 year-old Explorer looks like when it is reasonably cared-for!

Hey - there are places that pay me to show up. So that’s something.
I might even bring my cameras etc and do a podcast or something of that ilk while we are there. Sounds like a party!

Good luck with all your events.

After all this work, are you going to make this an annual thing or bi-annual? I’d probably go for the day if I didn’t have something going on. Bring out the beater or bike.
Maybe offer others a learn to drive a manual in the metro ( if I have it sill, [God, I hope not]).

I’m still in. I was hoping to have my 924 roadworthy, but that’s not gonna happen so I’ll just drive my E34. 4 hour drive to Bolingbrook from my house - I’ll do it in 3.5. Won’t even have to leave home that early.

I felt the need to catch up on Lehto’s Law podcasts when I heard you were coming. I binge listened while working on organizing my garage yesterday. Looking forward to meeting you and your infamous Explorer.

I can’t seem to reply on your roundup post so...
If the weather permits, you can count me in for the Lombard show. I work in the morning.
