>>How was the trip? Did you get your Beef/Chicago Pizza fix?

>Terrific! After arriving Friday, went almost immediately to the Portillo's in Vernon (or Vermin depending on your POV) Hills. Then for dinner went to Bill's pizza. A cookout Saturday night, then on Sunday the Parthenon Restaurant in Chicago. I must admit however, that I had a steak. I never get a good piece prime beef when I go up there, and, while it was a tough call, the thought was too much. Monday, it was Capt'n Nemo's in Rogers Park.

Sounds great! Boy, I live here and don't eat that good. I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving as I get to take AmTrak to Staples, MN. I love train travel, it's so relaxing. The only bad part is arriving at 1:30AM, but that's not too bad.
