Son graduating Naval Basic Training...
Hello Men..
well, it's that time already! 10 weeks went fast.. flying to Chicago tomorrow.. will land around 1300... Getting rental car, headed to Embassy Suites in Deerfield. then off to Sons graduation. Hope to take in some sights saturday. How does the weather look this weekend? should i rent a car @ Airport? Any other Viable cost effective options? Perhaps i could rent one of your Vette's..
Keep the weather pleasant please.. It has been in the 70's here in Dallas all week... I'll attempt to bring some of that with me.

Looking like rain on sat 50% chance, so that can change. Rent a car at the airport might be the most hassle free way, just have to take the shuttle for a short ride to the rental places, lots of signs in O'hare (assuming your not going to midway) to lead you in the right direction.

When youre seeing the sights on Saturday, if anyone asks if you want to go to places like Englewood, Austin, Humboldt Park, well the west and south side, do not go.

I hope you left your firearms back home, just dial 911 (They’re really good!).
