    Not from Illinois, but I'm from Indianapolis. Not too far away!
  • I am from the Quad Cities, Rock Island to be exact, but I currently live in California.

    Hey there! I'm living in Oak Park right now (just west of Chicago) but originally from a small town called Beecher about 36 miles south of Chicago and right on the Indiana border!

    I grew up in the Quad Cities too, RIHS RULES! I now live NW of Chicago in the suburbs closer to the WI border. Oh and I do know where Lasalle Peru is! Pass it everytime I go visit my parents! Welcome to MFP.
  • It's always nice to find someone who knows where the Quad Cities are. All my family graduated from Rocky but me, we left after my freshman year.
