@Taffy gave Kira and me a tour of Chicago on our last day in the area (stayed in Evanston where we had a great time visiting with @jyokota--and had surprise dinner with @vankrey prepared by the incomparable Bill! ) A fantastic, very short, too short trip.
Many thanks to our hosts! Oh, and I hope to post some photos (from my phone) of the KPop Concert we attended--the whole reason for going to Chicago in the first place. I don't think I've ever witnessed a happier kid in my life.
I miss Chicago already. It has a friendliness like I experience in my hometown, but it has so much more history and "big city" stuff. Gotta go back!
