Lunch in Chicago; You're Invited

“Don't know yet.”

“I have an appointment in the burbs and will get there late if at all. But defeintely next week I will be there”

“I can't make it this week. Jon is home (yippee!!!) and we are spending all day Thursday touring around on a Harley.”

“sounds like fun ruby :D”

“=D Cool. You should stop at the store!”

“Lmao@ Sass...I was just getting ready to ask if this means they're done with the grocery shopping!!”

“Are you kidding? I practically live at the store! It's easier to just not go home. ;)


If the rain lets up here, we will take a break today to go to Wrigley Field and catch the Cubs/Mets game. =)”

“My physical ran late. The good news is: I saved a bundle on my car insurance through GEICO . . . Oops that's not it.

The really good news is, I am as healthy as can be. WHOOOOPPEEEEE!!!!!

OK Lunch NEXT Thrusday (the 19th)?”

“AJ, it was great meeting you! lol


And I won't be able to make the lunch this Thursday. Some buddies from the Xterra board and I are going to Isle Royale for a few days. :D”

“Going backpacking on Isle Royale?”

“Take me with you!!!! Wish I could get the time off.”

“Yep, backpacking on the island. I can't wait.

AJ, if you can get the time you are welcome to join us.”

“Chills have a great trip. Remember to take Dramamine (sp?) about an hour before you get on the boat.

+++++++++++++++


I'm out for this week. Have a conference Tues-Thursday. I'd rather do a TT Lunch, though.”

“Thanks, Mark. I've got the stuff packed and I'll take it an hour before the ferry ride. :)”

“theres a ferry in chicago?”

“lol, no. We are driving up to Copper Harbor in the UP.”

“I wish. There are two that cross Lake Michigan, The Badger (Manitowoc to Ludington) and The Lake Express (Milwaukee to ??).

But they mean the ferry to Isle Royale from the mainland.”

“Is ANYONE going to be there? If yes, I will go too.”

“I CANT :”

“Anyone? anyone? Buehler? Anyone?”

“Not me. I'll be in South Bend.”

“Why, AJ, I just happen to have the Lake Express brochure sitting right here by the computer, after picking it up somewhere in Wisconsin over the weekend.

It's Milwaukee to Muskegon, MI... and back, of course. :-)”

“sorry not me”

“Looks like I diet tomorrow for lunch

Maybe nexy week tokick of Memorial Day?”

“Anyone? Anyone? Buehler?”

“Man this thread is D E A D this week. Anyone in town today want to do lunch?”

“I expect to pass through the area on Sunday. First to O'Hare (my daughter's flight departs at 2:30 P.M.
Second is Naperville, then I plan head for Indiana. Hoping to find a campsite for the night on a busy, holiday weekend.”

“Good luck nowslimmer.

Hi future neighbors. I was in your neck of the woods last weekend and looked at a plethora of neighborhoods and houses. Nothing solid yet, but at least I know that I'm on the right track.

I'll be back in town with my daughter around the 10th for another visit. Maybe a "dinner in Chicago, you're invited"?”

“Sorry, can't do Sunday. I will be day hiking in the Southern Kettle Moraine.”

“I'll be back in town with my daughter around the 10th for another visit. Maybe a "dinner in Chicago, you're invited"?”

I could do dinner after work that night!!! Cool. Let me know as the time nears and when you will be in and or around town.”

“I can possiblky make it for dinner. I work in the Loop”

“It would be really cool to meet you folks. I'll keep in touch about the dinner.”

“dhutch, skip the trip to Chitown and come on the Nordhouse Dunes trip. I'll answer ?'s for you in person about the west burbs.”

“I could have done a lunch today, but I had no way of knowing that ahead of time. I had a two-hour break between deps in the River North neighborhood. So I had lunch alone at a Thai place. Yummy!

When Dhutch comes in, I think it should be happy hour and dinner!!!!!”

“Happy hour for sure Ruby, then dinner!!! If it works out better for a get together that I stay somewhere other than the St Charles area, let me know cause I definitely want to meet you people :-) Plus it won't hurt me to drive around some more.

hubcap - believe me I'd much rather hike, but I have to find a home. Homeless doesn't sound appealing at ALLLLL!”

“Have you considered renting somewhere first before buying to get a better feel for where you are going to be most comfortable?”

“Yes Ruby, I had thought of that. It's still an option if I can find a house with a yard but I do prefer to buy so as not to have to do 2 moves. That's why I'm buckling down after this race to find a place.”

“I am back from Shawnee Nat'l. For. Who is in town when? Lunch? Happy Hour? Dinner?”

“How was Shawnee? Where did you go? Trip report?”

“Will post a trip report”

“Today? Anyone? Anyone?”

“Drat.

I was downtown earlier today and left before you posted.

Perhaps next week?”

“I ate in the local Corner Bakery Jackson and Michigan”

“I will be on my way to Northern Michigan (LP) Petoskey to attend Bro in law's wedding on Sat.

Maybe next week? The 23rd?”

“Out of Town on the 23rd.

But will be in the UP--if'n you stay that long.”

“Just going for the weekend. the wedding is the 18th (Sat) and I have to be back Sunday night. SOrry, would be nice. What are ya doin in da U P? Camping, hiking, backpacking all of the above?”

“I am back from Petoskey (beautiful country) Wish I had been camping instead of staying at a luxury resort hotel.

So . . . are we on for lunch this Thursday? (the 23rd?) I will be here in town.

Anyone else?”

“Perhaps. But it's too early for me to tell.”

“I might be able to make this. TH was my day off, but I've got to come into the office for some work.”

“I could make it friday... :(”
