Looks like farmland southwest of Joliet, near Dwight. As intrigued as I am, at $4.15 a gallon, I'm not sure I'd want to head out there without any kind of certainty that there will be others doing it too. If I'm going to end up standing in a cornfield by myself, I'm pretty sure I can find a place to do that closer to home. (unsigned)

A barn at about the area of the location.
Looking South on a very pretty day. ( The exact Geohash location is just up this road a bit. )
