Grandview and while your at it, hit Fondulac Drive on the East Peoria side. With any luck the change of leaves will have begun. You could do the spoon river drive. That's always nice.
To give you an idea... this is Grandview through my inexperienced eye. No matter what, it's beautiful. Especially in the fall. http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll32/Imchristi2/P http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll32/Imchristi2/P http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll32/Imchristi2/P http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll32/Imchristi2/P http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll32/Imchristi2/P http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll32/Imchristi2/P |

ooops.. did I miss the boat on this one? I thought you was looking for sights... as in scenery.. YIKES!! If your looking for food (and for a small fee of course) I could pm you directions to Chef's house, but make sure you bring plates, forks and knifes, sit comfortably on his porch and chant "Chef, Chef, Chef" melodically as he pulls in the drive. He really loves that.
Oh.. the Spirit of Peoria is a pretty cool ride. Or at least it used to be when it was the Julia Bell Swain. Am I showing my age here? |

A few of us PDC'ers took a Spirit of Peoria Cruise just a few weeks ago. It was AWESOME!

Never seen Ponte Vecchio mentioned anyway. Love that place, excellent food.
Makes Basta look like McDonald's. |

Kat... Hook, you two disappoint me... there's real beauty in this town. IF you care to look for it.
These work so much better from my own photo album than photobucket.. I moved them here so you can see them better Voice... I was so taken with this view that it became my screen saver while I was in Florida my last year. That Voice is Grandview Drive. Welcome to Peoria, IL as I remember it. My favorite spot as a teenager.. whoooo hoooo |

Those who want to show their visitors the road out of town should take it themselves first. Buh-bye.
