Yea, stick to the turnpike (I-80- I-90) through Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. They usually keep it plowed and salted well. You get your moneys worth. Have a safe trip. Enjoy that rai$e you got as well.

I grew up in no dak. Beulah in Mercer cty to be exact. Great place to be as a kid. hard to live anywhere but grand forks Bismarck or Mandan if you are over 16. Not much going on. I miss Indian summer and snow every now and then. It is beautiful country.

Best of luck to you. And go fighting Sioux.

Ditka's. But I doubt you want to go downtown to eat. Are you taking the Dan Ryan Express Way? You might want to wait until you get west of the city and into the suburbs.

If you're going downtown you might as well go to Giordonos(sp?). And then proclaim that you've eaten the best pizza in the world!

Find a Garrett's popcorn shop and get a gallon of the Chicago Mix. Your kids will enjoy it.

Good timing. If you wanted to pull in and eat downtown you could do that and still get out of dodge before rush hour!!

We decided on Exchequer Restaurant and Pub. My cousin told me it is a must have he lived here in Chicago for 6 years. I'll let you guys know how the food is after.

Speaking of Ditka's. I sat upstairs at the small bar one Sunday around 11am drinking beers and smoking a cigar with Mark Malone.

Thanks man. If it's to good they won't enjoy much of it. I'll have to take control of it.
