My husband's parents live in Lockport. We've been there twice. The first time it had been so long since he'd been there, he got us lost and I ended up in some section of Joliet til he figured out where he was, and then coming back I got stuck in Aurora in bumper-to-bumper three lane traffic. The second time we took all back roads, and my nerves stood that a little better. Going to his sister's in Carpentersville isn't much better.
