Possibly, have to see how this next week goes, since I'm only 3 hours away, I may stay Saturday and just drive home latter that night.

For those of you on the tour or joining at the Chicago stops. We will be joining in at Rt53 & Dundee Which is about 15-20 minutes from the Heidt's stop. Trixie and me live about 1 mile from Dundee & Rt53. Feel free to stop by when you get at this point if you need a break, drink, etc. PM me if you want and I will give you my phone number and address. we will try to hook up with Driller around 9:30-10am at my house. Or when ever JP gets up here.

Didn't see you guys today. We're planning on rolling out around 0730. Would love to meet up and drive together.

Sounds like Mike will be meeting out in WI dells.

I'm just about to hit the road in the general direction of the Dells, rockin' a fresh fuel pump, and 5-7 PSI higher fuel pressure across the range. should be a good drive.

I don't know the name of the place in which we are staying.. :D if someone wants to shoot me a text message or something, that'd be fantastic. Otherwise, I'll just start harassing people when I get there.

Made it home with plenty of power steering fluid to spare. Will post some pictures up later.

Thank you again everyone for the great hospitality! Was nice to finally put some faces to names. Can't wait to do it again!

Thank you for coming! :)

The Mrs. and I had a great time and hope to do it again! The Power Tour experience was hectic at times but there were many memorable moments. :cool:

I made it home too. :)

We had light rain for much of the drive, and some very heavy stuff once we crossed into Minnesota. Lots of trees down in my neighborhood, but none on my property. I'm pleased.

Thanks everyone for a good time.

Not sure when I can post pics I borrowed the camera out to damian before heading home.

Mike I love that picture!

Here are a few of my favorites....unfortunately my camera was set to the wrong exposure and 90% of my photos are washed out :(. But here are some that came out all right.

It was great to see some Lincoln people again! We got home yesterday. I actually may have a couple usable pics from my camera but have to find out how to upload them here.

I just got a smartphone. I have no idea how to actually use the smartphone. :p The site, probably, but I may have forgotten that haha. I was shocked that I actually figured out how to take pics with the phone. I somehow also made a video, but didn't mean to. :fart
