...if I was going to Chicago this year.
I didn't think so at the time, so said
nyet, but it turns out I will be after all. Just now called to reserve a room. (Only the tower was left, but that's OK. Ever walked from the far West Wing to the tent and back? It's 1440 yards... almost a mile. I'm gittin' too old for that shit.)
Hope to see all a'you again.

I assure you that no trickery or deception is used when I make stems or restore pipes.

The fact that you seem to enjoy doing it would suggest otherwise. SORCERY!

I am also 90% sure I am attending for the weekend, also will be in the tower, My Derby queen will also be attending this with me as it is actually going to be our 27th anniversary get away... and the cool thing is we will be arriving by train, which has been a long time desire to take a train trip some where, what better place than to Chicago?
George we reserved a room one day b4 you and they offered either room so they must be filling up fast, or maybe it just because we will only be there for saturday night

I've been on that train from Pittsburgh to Chicago. I had the exact same desire, to take a train trip somewhere. I got that out of my system, let me tell you.
Hopefully they will have done some crossing maintenance since I took my trip in '07. In any case, have fun in Chicago. I will make it one of these years.
