Not sure if I'm up for the road trip, but it's only in Illinois so it's do-able.

Just got this email from Subaru:

Help us set a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ record!
Subaru of America, in participation with the Village of Itasca, will attempt to set a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ record for the “Largest Parade of Subaru Cars” in the world on July 11, 2009.
The opportunity to be part of this historic event is open to all Subaru owners. Participants are welcome to decorate their cars (not required), bring family and friends, and even your pet to ride in your Subaru during the parade. We will have an official adjudicator from GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ to observe and confirm this record.
In addition to setting a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ record, Subaru Great Lakes Region will make a donation of $15 per Subaru that participates in the parade to two great organizations. The total donation will be shared equally between PAWS Chicago and Salute, Inc. For more information on these groups, click on the logos to the left or visit www.pawschicago.org (http://www.pawschicago.org) and www.saluteinc.org (http://www.saluteinc.org).

I'm not. I figured if Chris was up for it and anyone was interested I might go, but if no one else is going I doubt I will. Could be fun though! Too bad you're going to be out of town.

This just happens to be my one free weekend in July... maybe it's a sign
