    Countryside, IL is where we normally stay. Last year we got rooms on Priceline for about $57 a night @ Holiday Inn with name your own price................ NOT Happening this year, I tried $60 and $65 for 3 star hotel (Holiday Inn) in Countryside (Nope) Had to lower to 2 1/2 Star (Best Western) @ $65 (Should've tried 60 there) and was accepted at the Best Western next door to the Holiday Inn. Katie and I will be there Friday!!!!!

    Well I am in most likely coming in Saturday morning ..... That may change but I booked the name your own price and the lowest they will take is 63 at the best western .... So my room is all booked, and I can't wait to see everyone again.

    Just thought I would add if any one is coming into town prior to Saturday and would like to meet up, (schedule permitting) I would not mind heading south. Just shoot me a PM.

    Quick question for those attending, can anyone do me a favor and bring me (2) 6 packs of Du Claws Sweet Baby Jesus? I have money, cigars or if you like some California beers to trade. Thanks in advance.

    Don't think we get that here in Michigan. I'll double check, but I've never seen it in the past.

    I appreciate that Ray. Let me know what kind of trade you would like.

    Tony, from my understanding it is a small distribution area, I think to parts of PA and MD mostly.

    I may be able to make this happen .... My cousins live in the Maryland DC area and have been coming up here on the regular (sick parent) I may be able to have a six pack make the trip up.

    Guys, thanks for all the responses. For those that have offered and are driving to the herf, I will take up to a case, (2) 6 packs will be shared in Chicago and (2) 6 packs will be going home to California. I will be flying into Chicago on December 3rd so if this can be finalized no later than the 2nd that would be great.


    Royln, you best be in Chicago.......................
