Cary and I along with Andrew, Pete and Betsy started the day with a Wendella boat cruise on the Chicago River.  Boy have things changed.  We went up the North Fork of the Chicago River, which when Cary and I lived in the City was very dead.  Now lots of condos, although many are empty.  We went down the South Loop and that was built up too.  No bodies floating in the river either.

Next we all toured Millennium Park and then met Clark and Suzanne for lunch at the new Art Institute Wing.  Then, we toured the Gold Coast and showed the Andrew and Pete their parents old stomping grounds.  We walked by my old apartment, Cary’s old apartments and had a few drinks at the Lodge.  We then crashed at the hotel a bit.  Andre and Pete went out later and met up with John at Butch’s.
