We will be taking the Big Red party bus to the following places:

Start at the Peoria Book Rack's
parking lot - 4408 N Knoxville 2C, Corner of Lake/Knoxville

Old Book Barn, Forsyth/Decatur, Illinois

Lunch/Drinks at Stix on 36, Decatur

Novel Ideas Books & Gifts, Decatur

Head to Lincoln, Illinois

Ink & Imprint Books, Lincoln, IL

Dinner/Drinks at the following restaurant in Lincoln:

Guzzardo's Italian Villa (food); Spirited Republic (drinks); Top Hat Creamery (ice cream).

These are all right next to each other. You can just have dinner at Guzzardo's, or drinks at Spirited Republic but the food from Guzzardo's is brought over to you at Spirited.

Head back to & arrive in Peoria
