Chicago

Bryan, Les, Dan and myself spent a couple of nights in Chicago last weekend. A good time was had by all.

The highlights:

Millennium Park - the pavilion, the cloud sculpture, the water faces installation, all very cool.

Late night poker - It hurt us more than it hurt them. In a display of tough love, Dan and I had to teach the other guys a lesson by taking all of their money.

Bryan the Shark - Bryan can swim. Bryan can swim real good. Bryan and Dan competed in a swimming exhibition. I give Dan credit for his effort. Nobody expected Bryan to display such a freakish superhuman swimming ability. It was truly awesome.

Cielo - We had breakfast at this restaurant inside of the Omni Hotel on Michigan Ave. The food was fantastic.

Planetarium - I had never been there before, an enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours during the day.

Mr. RISK - Congratulations Bryan! Check out Bryan’s site for more on his amazing victory.

Tiki Bar - There was this great little tiki bar called Trader Vic’s in our hotel. It was a fun place. It was our first and last stop on Saturday night.
