Guest guest Posted October 5, 1999 Report Share Posted October 5, 1999 Sheryl- I know of 2 families from the suburbs of Chicago that I met in Houston. There is one family in Bloomington and one in another town about an hour from here but I can't remember where. There's also an older student at our School for the Deaf, but I haven't met her. I'm the only one close to the Iowa border but I'm not sure how close I'd really be to you. Haven't consulted a map yet. I'm one hour SE of Quincy, IL; 40 min directly east of Hannibal, MO. I have a friend in Aledo, IL. It takes me a little over 2 hrs to get to her house if I recall correctly. Are you on the other side of IA?

Guest guest Posted October 6, 1999 Report Share Posted October 6, 1999 Michele, Looking at the map, looks like the Quad Cities would be most central for all of us. For me alone....I would probably go the route of Burlington. That is about 160 miles from here. I live in south central Iowa just 35 miles south of Des Moines. I would love to meet with you. Right now, we are harvesting. I need to be around on the weekends to help. Hubby made some comments in conversation to relatives that I was out on a " mission " last weekend when he needed my help. But, I loved my " mission " . How about we work out something after harvest and before the hectic holidays begin?

Guest guest Posted October 6, 1999 Report Share Posted October 6, 1999 Sheryl- You tell me when the time is right for you and we'll see what's up here. We don't have to worry about harvest (big farming community but we're not farmers) so it's just the holidays to consider here. It'd be wonderful to meet. I might even be able to work in a night at my friend in Aledo...
