Crystal Lake GM to actually visit Crystal Lake, IL

Hey guys,

I am taking a trip to the Chicago area because my wife is speaking at a seminar. I was able, by her good graces, (and paying her off) to get her to agree to allow me to drive out to Crystal Lake, IL (about an hour outside Chicago) for a visit and some picture taking. I hope to write an article about the visit. I am not sure if anyone lives close by. But if you do, and are willing, I'd like to coordinate a chance to take some pictures and come up with an interesting article idea. Let me know. The timing would be around the weekend of August 18, 2017. I know strange date given its 2025 now.

Best,

RJ

P'shaw. We've all been able to time travel since, what, 2021? No big deal. I'm still waiting for my jet pack, though.

I will be visiting the Chicago area during the simulation time period. I will be there on Wednesday night late through the weekend. I was already planning on visiting Dole Mansion (my owners home) in Crystal Lake.

Depending on the outcome, I may be either drowning my sorrows at a Crystal Lake bar or be running down the street celebrating a potential championship that will not occur for another 8 years.
