Clocey...you're right...Peoria was once a great city and it has gone down hill over the last 30 to 35 years or so. I used to walk from Glendale Ave. to my friend's house on Spring St. and back home again at 9 or 10 at night, by myself, and sometimes we even walked all the way downtown but I wouldn't try it now even in broad daylight! We moved to Ocala, Florida for a year and I absolutely loved it. Medical issues brought us back to Illinois but I'll be going back to Florida one way or another! I hate the cold!
Tink's Mom...Yes, I think CAT is still #1 in the area.
Richwood's huh? That was our rival! I grew up along the river on South Rome road towards Chillicothe and I lived in Normal for 5 years...now we're about an hour south of there. It really is a small world! |
