I never made a special trip but I was in Galesburg and heard that the pres made a suprise stop at the high school so I swung into the area and saw his bus (about 100 yards was as close as I got settig in my truck, secrete service everywhere trying to blend in--gym shorts-sleeveless shirts--dead giveaway was when they kept straining while holding their hand to their ear--I was suprised I got that close in my vehicle--no one came over and checked me out, I went back to the main road to the farm he was visiting and was first car in the intersection when he passed--like him or not it was pretty cool when I honked and he turned and looked like he was waving at me--the grandaughter thought it was "cool" the president waved at her.
