Cris, Have you seen the Hamburger America docu? Love to see Chi-town represented. Butter burgers with real butter from Wisc. and New Haven claiming to be the first in something yet again...

JJ, Artful Dodger, let's have a drink sometime. Invite Novak. I must visit soon.

sorry we missed those of you who wanted to come. not a big turn out but a turn out nonetheless.

i was there but I ran into an old friend so I didn't have the chance to look around for the group.

je I'll be in the city soon I give you a shout out.

damn you for meeting up the day after i left!
nonetheless, i had an awesome time in chicago...
expect my location to be changing from "boise" to "chicago" in the next 6-8 months,
FOR REALS!

post some pictures!

serious stephanie? wow, good luck!

steph said i have to ok all pictures through her before posting.. haa.. yeah right.

i think my words were "only if it looks good!"
drunken streetcorner pictures, oh my!

I love Chicago but dont let the summer fool you steph - it can be nasty

what can be nasty?

winter isnt all that bad. The lake keeps us safe.

but then again I spent way to many winters in minneapolis; chicago seems like a resort town next to that...

yeah, weather isn't really a determining factor for me.

ms. stephanie thank you for the postcard. the midwest weather has been very mild since my return six years ago. stephanie chicago needs you!!!

Bundle up it gets cold out there ( me walking the beam )

is midwest cold colder than northwest mountain cold?

yep.

stings but ironically when it snows its warmer feeling. when theres no clouds in january theres no "blanket". Then theres that wind tunnel thing between the skyscrapers - Dam! But it makes you tough. You prob could take it if your in the mountains.
