Thank you Chef aka "Tour Guide" on the Peoria.com Forums

Thank you Chef for pulling our "Hike" together! If you missed it, so sorry - a beautiful day, fairly easy to navigate, good company, and interesting to see "what once was."

Thanks, again!!

Ditto!

Doh, Wish I could of made it. I was overruled on the day's activities.

Nice day, good company and great exercise - thanks Chef!

Chef nothing but love for you. Thank You!!!

I really wish I could have come but I had promised a certain little one that we would go to the Easter Egg Hunt.

Hey, it was all good fun, some exercise and hopefully someplace you can show others. I've been through there at least a half dozen times and it still fascinates me. I'm glad that all of you who came out (including a few lurkers!!)

Maybe PI can lead us on an expedition of Springdale or if anyone else has any cool places, lets go!!

Hopefully, we can do it again in the fall during leaf change season for those who missed it.

And for those of you were around for the conversation about the bar in the hillside across Abingdon from Glen Oak Park, PI has posted this:

We need to give tree dude a name

There is something about that that i like. I cant put my finger on it.

Great pics, PI! Number 3 is awesome and 4 is funnier than hell.

When the Springdale tour goes on The boss wants to go on that one.

I gotta be a proud mama here and just say how proud I was of Abby...she had the shortest legs and kept up the whole time with no complaints.

Abby was awesome. A real trooper.

No doubt...what a trooper!! She stepped in that water, made a face and kept on going!!
