Chicago Poly Meet, take 2

[snoopy369]

I work this weekend so Friday is much better if you want me to be there

I'm free all day so time doesn't matter ... I won't awaken until after 10am or so though.

You still have my cell if you want to call me/text me?

Are you coming to the Polymeet snoopy?
If so, state your beer preference.

Yea, I still have it (if you still have the same number )

I'm fine with going in the afternoon Shall we do 1 PM?

Millenium Park is the public park just north of the Art Institute, east of Michigan Ave. It's at its best in the summer when things are blooming and fountains are in operation, but Cloud Gate (or, as we call it,The Bean) alone is worth it. It's basically a really big, highly plolished, um, bean-shaped thing that is, well, just cool -- reflecting the skyline and such. There's also an outdoor concert venue, a nicely scultped garden walk etc. They do an outdoor skating rink in the winter. It's just a very nice public area, and free to check out.



Quick link to the Millenium Park website.

As stated in #68, yes

Beer preference: Root [well, really Cherry Coke Zero or Diet Cherry Coke or noncherry versions of such] I don't drink alcohol.

Should have same number I hope 1pm is fine. It takes between 30 and 45 minutes to get down here if you're starting downtown, but since I'm basically right here, it doesn't matter exactly, just let me know when you're close.

The stop if it's the #6 (I think the #10 doesn't run on Friday) should be called Museum, but it's 56th street if it's not called that.

[Zopperoni]

According to the museum website, I should get off at 56th street. I'll figure it out...

Looks like we are on for tonight.
Zopp... I sent you a PM with Info.
Snoopy... are you planning on coming out?

[snoopy369]

Yessir... particularly if you're able to provide transportation from downtown

[Ming]

I can drive people out there tonight, and then provide transportation to one of the commuter train's in the morning... At the moment, I don't think anybody else is driving back into the city tonight.

[snoopy369]

I can always take a cab back to a train tonight if necessary assuming you don't live in some uncivilized backwater with no cabs

[Ming]

Cabs are available... we will just have to make sure you don't miss the last train going back to the city

[snoopy369]

Well, depending on where you are I can always grab a blue line or red line train also.

Hey we're out in God's country, so the blue or red line end well before the vanilla villages.
