Good evening Illinois, Pat, Jim, Ken, John, Sean!

The Winter 2017 Illinois Chapter G2G was at the 50s Diner, Peoria, Illinois today. Sean, his mother, Patty and I had a great lunch and shot the shlt. No pictures were taken that I know of but it did happen.

Unless Sean took pictures while I wasn't looking.

All that you would have seen were four old people at a table eating lunch.
