Going to go visit my brother who now lives in chicago, estimated 6 hour drive from minneapolis, minnesota, to chicago, illinois. Apparently he has horses so I will get to see them, although they are not at where he lives. Be back sunday night guys, and hopefully I will want to play NS! Oh, if I had a camera, I would take pictures, but I don't :(.

Ah, the Windy City.

Do you get to ride the horses <3
no camera!? :( <_<
lots of people leaving for the weekend and coming back sunday

Have fun, I wish you had a camera...

You could always stop off somewhere and get a few of those disposable cameras that allow you to get a disk with all your images when you take them to get developed.

Haf, just got back, got there a day later than I should have.... stupid mother gets lost and cannot see in the dark too much! Next time I'm driving.... but back onto the trip, I was in deerfield, Illinois, where my brothers girlfriend grew up. Went to see the horses which they have and one of them is pregnant AND overweight, so that horse was huge. Didn't get to ride any though due to there being only so much time to be down there, only about a day. Didn't actually go to chicago itself, but I will take the AmTrack train which has a stop a few blocks from their apartment the next time I go down, which is possibly thanksgiving. The roads had a lot more potholes than in minnesota, which made me proud of the high road budget in minnesota heh. Great restraunts there though :).
Oh yeah, drove about an hour out of the way on the way down, one lane due to construction for a bit too, so it took us like seven hours or so to get to madison, when it should only take about four hours(I think)
Next time I go down, I should possibly have pictures :D. If I can get pictures the first one you will see is a pregnant horse! Look forward to this
-
:o i live like 15 miles away from deerfield
-
Bah. Next time go downtown and take pictures so I can be all like 'I LIVED THERE!'.
Hoping to go back some day.
Weird, forums are a little slow today...
