Today is basically a recovery day for Elizabeth and myself after our trip to Chicago over the past few days. I spent all day Thursday, Friday, and then 4 hours Saturday morning at a continuing education class in Rosemont, Illinois. It was a very interesting class called Chain Reaction 3D which covers Applied Functional Science, and it was taught by "the father of function" Gary Gray.
While we were in town, Elizabeth had fun shopping at Ikea, we got to see Timmy & Alana for a little bit, and we were able to enjoy some quality Chicago cuisine that we don't get to have very often. This trip was actually the first time that I've been back to Chicago since we moved back to Iowa last year. I made sure that we had my favorite sushi, Sushi Para in Palatine, which we enjoyed on Thursday after my classes were done. Then on Friday we met up with Timmy & Alana for Exchequer Pizza.

It was great seeing you; we miss you both.
ReplyDeleteI've already told Timmy numerous times that we need to go back there for pizza.
