Hiya! I know a lot of us are from the Chicago area, but I'm curious to know who all lives in the Northwest burbs? I live in Palatine, and it'd be cool to get to make new friends and have someone to hang out with at the next ACen. ^_^

I get that feeling too. I mean, we're like practically next door to the con, so there's gotta be others in the area. Hey NW burbs people, come out, come out, wherever you are!

I'm 30 minutes away from the convention center if I take the CTA blue-line. I'm no where near you guys.

Yeah, I'm not in the NW suburbs, either, unfortunately.

Near north 'burbs, anyone?

Roselle, if you don't know where that is, it's by Itasca. If you don't know where THAT is, it's by Wood dale > Bensenville > Franklin Park > O'hare Airport.

Or I could just tell you I live 20 minutes down Meacham road from Woodfield.

Whichever works

I live in Woodstock now, but I used to live in Lake Zurich and McHenry. Bah... I want to live closer to the city but I love my job and I live 2 min away from it! I like to drive, so Chicago isn't that far. You just need good music (and patience for I-90 )

No kidding! I just visited the LITH/Crystal Lake/Algonquin area on Friday to go bowling with my friends, and Randall Road is like box store city! Quite impressive, actually.

Route 59 in Naperville/Aurora is like that too. Yay for zoning! :rolleyes:

There's tons of stores to shop in, but my favorite store is Yumz... Frozen yogurt with all the toppings you want. *drools* :heart:
