I want to give you a little advice when walking downtowwn on Michigan ave. if you have an Ipod or Iphone don't hold them in the open while texting or surfing the net and be aware of your surroundings, by that I mean large groups of black teens walking together, if you see them avoid them. We have had a problem with flash mobs stealing ipods and such, however I think they really have put a lot more Police out there so I think that problem was rectified. If this is your first time here and you need some advice on restaurants and stuff to do pm me. Have fun.

Thanks for the offer. It's funny you mentioned the Police. We were walking down Michigan Ave. 2 nights ago and we were surprised at the number of policeman we saw--a group of 4 or 5 on just about every corner.

we live 9 miles west of the Volo Auto Museum. Cool place to visit. Just DON'T buy any 'fully restored' cars from them. I have some stories...

Enjoy your visit. -Joe

Yep. The weather still sucks here... might even be worse now.

Finally made it back home (2 AM) in spite of our plane out of Midway having a mechanical failure! It's been a quirky vacation, I'm just glad we're back home. My only regret--we didn't get to hit a couple more restaurants downtown (including Bandera)--maybe next time.
