 In Chicago Next Week... So I'll be in Chicago next Tues - Thurs for work, I am staying downtown (Hilton)
I may or may not have any free time, but since this is my first time there, I want to try to see some of the cool galleries and stores and stuff if I can.
Please school me on your city Chicagoans! (I hope that is the right term even haha)
Thanks!
- a

Also if you're into retro/used toys for cheap go to Quake on Southport, TONS of crap from Star Wars glass' from the 70's to Ultimate Warrior Wrestling Buddies. Great for those treasure finds!
