Peoria Illinoisan

I know it’s been on an extended hiatus and I seriously came this close (hold up your hand and put the tip of your index finger right next to your thumb but don’t let them touch) to shutting the whole thing down for good.

But I didn’t. Couldn’t let it go.

To review, here’s how it works:

1. I take a photo of something in the Peoria area.

2. You guess what it is.

3. When someone gets it right, I update the post with the answer and usually a little history or trivia.

That’s it in a nutshell.

With that being said, I encourage all comments and even trolls because the reason I do this is for the stories and tidbits of info that come out through the comments. Stories, history, rumors, snide remarks - that’s what makes the blog interesting. Besides, do you really think I know the history behind all this stuff? If you do, you’re fooling yourself; I often rely on my commenters to fill me in.

So update your bookmarks, put on your thinking caps and come on over.

A few side notes: I will try to update the site at least once a week, but there is no specific timetable. You can generally count on an update over the weekends because that is when I have the most free time. Also, the site is not perfectly formatted yet; I need to work on the header and the blogroll hasn’t been updated in quite some time.
