They close Diversey for sure during show. I think they might also close Belmont since it is close and in the flight path.

I'll be launching at East Chicago around 9:30 or 10. Picking up my cousin at Belmont, then hooking for the show. Followed by PARTY Saturday night at Hammond.

Weather looks good. 1 ft or less.

We will be directly east of Diversey Harbor.

Have a few seats open if somebody wants to come out with us.

PERFECT! You mind if my mother inlaw and a few of her garden club friends hop aboard? They have been waiting for a ride in mine but just can't seem to get our timing right! Just kidding. Have a great time big D

That was a fun ride once you got on top of it. Todd and I passed two Coastie ribs on the way back to Hammond at around 65-70 mph...they didn't chase us...which was nice...
