And the blue lights shining with a heavenly grace Help you right on by. And there ain’t no road just like it, Anywhere I’ve found Running south on lake shore drive headed into town Just snakin' on by on L.S.D. flying that troubled bownd And it starts up north from Hollywood; water on the drivin’ side Concrete mountains rearing up those shadows just about 5 Sometimes you can smell the green if your mind is feeling fine There ain’t no finer place to be then running Lake Shore Drive And there’s no peace of mind in pace you see riding on Lake Shore Drive And there ain’t no road just like it, Anywhere I’ve found Running south on Lake Shore Drive headed into town Just snaking on by on L.S.D. flying that troubled bownd And it’s Friday night and you’re looking clean, too early to start the rounds 10 minute ride from the gold coast’s back, make sure your pleasure’s bound And it’s 4 o’clock in the morning and all the people have gone away Just you and your mind and Lake Shore Drive tomorrow is another day And the sun shine fine in the morning time tomorrow is another day. And there ain’t no road just like it, Anywhere I’ve found Running south on Lake Shore Drive headed into town Just snaking on by on L.S.D. flying that troubled bownd. Where is my fizzy-lifting drink?

They had one hanger while I was a student. They were just starting on the 2nd hanger when I started jumping in Wisconsin (closer to where I was living). ~ Lisa ~ Do you Rigminder?

I did some jumps in Hinckly probably about 10 or so years ago. And some in Morris. Never jumped at SDC until I moved away and took my hubby there for a visit. ~ Lisa ~ Do you Rigminder?

airtwardo 6 #44 December 12, 2006 Yeah well.... well.... I am from Crystal Lake... and I went to school in Bloomington and jumped in Minier. Quote As in Jumpin' Jack "Tillman" field! Recognize anyone in the pic? (...I'm the tall ~ handsome one! ) ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites hisgoofyness 0 #45 December 12, 2006 QuoteYeah well.... well.... I am from Crystal Lake... and I went to school in Bloomington and jumped in Minier. I lived in Schaumburg and West Aurora. I mainly jumped in Hinckley while I was there, especially since my house in West Aurora was only 15 miles away. Although, I have some really good memories while at the cessna boogies I went to in Minier. I am glad I took Sunshine's advice and came down for those. What I remember best of Illinois Valley: "Bombs Away!!!" Goudha is for Buddha, and that's good enough for me!
