Title: Other Chicago Happenings
Post by Tom K on Sep 15th, 2004, 9:01pm
Am not going to be able to make it to Milwaukee (the good land, Wayne's World), but would like to get together with others from the Chicago area if anyone is up for it.  I'm in Arlington Heights right near the expressways, so anyone is close.  If you are up for it, that would be cool, if not then maybe we can get something going for later in the fall.

It's easier for me to make it to Chicago than it is for me to go to Milwaukee. Name the time and place and I'll try to be there. I'm pretty familiar with most of the Chicago area, especially the northwest suburbs.

Well that makes 5 of us.  Once the dust settles at school and I make it through homecoming, (I don't attend, I'm a chef at the school) we will have to figure out a date and a place.  Like I said, I can travel anywhere so that doesn't bother me.  I'm pretty free after the 2nd week of October, so let's put our hopefully, PF heads and move forward.

Could even do a picnic at the Millenium park before it gets too chilly  - while the leaves are changing.....

Hi Tom,

I work in Northbrook down the street from you. My weekends are filled up for the month including Oct. 2nd in Milwaukee. If something is going on later in the year I am interested. Also check the DavCon thread. It's in January and a great event to meet other Clusterheads.

PFDAN,
BM

I'm thinking 2nd or 3rd weekend in Oct.  Don't know where yet, we have the Mill Park idea, any others?  Who is up for either of those weekends and which works better for everyone?

A fall picnic sounds like a great idea. Either weekend is fine with me.

What is a good place?  Who wants to do what?  Don't think the weather is going to be conducive to picnic in Millenium Park.  Could still go downtown, that would be fine.  I don't know...I just planned the date, I don't know what you all want to do, or should that y'all?
