You can guess from the title of this post which one caught my eye.
Chillicothe.
Why?
Because I been there. I know where it is. I probably have relatives of relatives that live there.
My paternal grandparents and my dad's brother (that would be my uncle) and his wife's family used to bop-over to Chillicothe regularly. I never understood why. Perhaps some of my aunt's relatives live there.
I wonder if there are any randonneurs in Chillicothe.
Hmmn, I think I know where I can find a database that might provide the answer.
Per Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chillicothe,_Illinois
Oh, in case any old "foamers" read this and the above wiki link ... I've been to and over and past Edelstein, many times. Of course, I still think of IL-Hwy-40 as IL-Hwy-88 (they changed the number when the governor and his driver got lost because they couldn't tell the difference between IL-88 and I-88 -- one an interstate, the other not; dang big-city types, anyway).Chillicother, IL website: http://www.cityofchillicotheil.com/
Town has more population than I thought. I would have guessed 2 or 3 thousand. On the other hand, it is close enough to Peoria that it may have been providing bedrooms for Peoria for many decades.
