East Central Illinois. 39.346676, -87.653484 | Out at Styx (college bar at SIU) with a group of frat buddies, one friend was trying to get her attention and he introduced us by telling me her name and that she "has land in Iroquois county" ... I chuckled and let him try his luck.
She asked me to a bonfire a few days later, but I was legitimately studying, so another friend gave her a ride to our house so she could confirm it was deep into some thermodynamics.
That was in '99, July will be 25 years.
BTW we're headed to dinner with that second friend and his lovely wife tonight.
