After dropping my sister off at a clarinet lesson at 2, my mom and I drove down to the tracks in Belvidere to see what we could see. And it turns out that we saw great! I saw my first (as far as I can remember) unpatched Southern Pacific unit. And in good timing too! About 15 minutes later, this train left for Chicago. From here I went to the mall where I met my girlfriend and went to her house for the rest of the day.
P.S. This date is 8 months to the day since we started dating ;)
