Late Sunday afternoon I took the train into Chicago ( 1 1/2 hours) and met up with Deb, her DH and the "Princess."  They had arrived in Chicago via train around 2:00 p.m.  Their trip took them about 18 1/2 hours but they said they enjoyed it.

We grabbed a taxi and headed over to Navy Pier and went to Harry Caray's for an early dinner.  We got there early enough to get outside seating so we got some good people watching in while we caught up.  It was a beautiful night in the City.  After dinner we walked the pier, people watched and chatted.

I loved meeting her DH, who is such a southern gentleman, easy to get to know and talk to (he even noticed my nails and complemented me on them!).  The "Princess" is so pretty and so sweet.  I loved to listen to her laugh and she has an eye for photography like Donna.

They took me back to the train station so I could catch the 8:30 train home.  The visit was too short but so nice.  Deb called this evening...they had gone to the Field Museum (Museum of Natural History), Sears Tower (Willis Tower as it has been renamed to now or "Big Willie" as we call it) and taken the trolley all over the City.  They're having a great time...so much to see and do in Chicago in the summer.

I'm going to try to attach a photo Deb's DH took of us.
