Interested? If so, please post your definite yes or maybe yes. Starting at maybe 5 PM, but flexible.
Pizza at our place. Salad, too, but there's already vegies in the tomato sauce. Also something to drink. Maybe dessert. Eating utensils will be available. No tablecloths. 
Low key. Food and conversation.
BSes - WSes - friends of BSes & WSes - all welcome.
If you have food allergies, PM plainsong. She can't eat pizza, so accommodating another person with food allergies should be pretty easy.

I'm a definite maybe yes! Are there hotels in the nearby area?
Thanks for organizing this Sisoon!

Zipcode is 60201. Hotels in Evanston, Skokie, Morton Grove, Northbrook, and Chicago. We're 10-12 miles from the Loop, a mile or 2 from Lake Michigan.
There's an 11 AM football game in our neighborhood - NU vs. Iowa, which means parking will be scarce until late afternoon.

I am officially a definite YES! I booked a hotel on the west loop. I'm bringing another BS with me. Very much looking forward to it!

It is my intent to come. I am job hunting, so it will depend on what I find, but I will come if I can. If anyone wants to carpool from the twin cities, pm means we can see if we can figure it out.

Yup - it may be very small.
I have to clear out some PMs so I can send you contact info and location. Look for a PM by end of day tomorrow.
We're near Northwestern U's football stadium.

Many thanks to sisoon and plainsong for opening their home for us this evening. I really enjoyed seeing you guys again, and meeting new people. Good food, good friends and good conversation all around.
I have however had my fill of Chicago traffic for the next seven weeks till I have to head back uo there again 
For us downstaters having more than five cars on the same mile of road is "traffic"

I second this! Thanks again for your hospitality sisoon.
(and many thanks to Minnesota and tbkjcn for the jumpstart in the rain!)
Hope to do another g2g in the future!

Well...you're welcome!
Just note that we enjoyed it, too.

Aww, thank you for the pics, MN. Great to see the SI member faces.
Plain song and Sisoon, so great to see you again. You look the same as when I was lucky enough to be a recipient of your gracious and abundant hospitality a few years ago (2014, 15?). You make me jealous with the pics of that Chicago pizza! I have had dreams about that and would have been there again if I could have. And I was lucky to have a great chauffeur that time. Would be afraid to tackle that traffic on my own. 
Finding what life could have been....... Why didn't I see it?
