If your interested or have ideas please post, so that if this is gonna happen we can get it rollin' :cool:

Would any of you be interested in going to Starved Rock to catch the fall colors and the waterfalls they have there?

This is Starved Rock visitors center parking lot last weekend, there was no water in the waterfalls at French Canyon.

With all the rain we've had I would have thought it would have been great. That is disappointing

I'm sure if Curt and I are available on the date you pick we will try to make it where ever you plan.

Like Chris, I'm surprised the falls were dry seeing as the rivers are just getting below flood stage. Nice shot, Andrew the conversion really works on this.

ok, so its brookfield or starved rock (check on falls), maybe even downtown again. The date (around when would be good for everyone)?

Sounds great to me, I should have no problem making either the 1st, 2nd or 3rd weekend of October but I'll be down in Arizona for the 27th and 28th.

If you choose the Zoo, Sharon and I are in for sure.

Would someone PM me once in a while on the decision?

Thanks - Jon
