Yup, I'm in for the 8th.

But I got a slightly bad news, Acadia won't open until 5pm on Sunday
http://site.acadiachicago.com/reservations/

So unless we want to meet up for dinner time, otherwise we'll need to pick another place.

Suggestions:

Or Mexican: http://www.lacantinagrill.com/ 1911 South Michigan

Both have acceptable street parking on michigan.

Sounds like fun, but neither of those dates work for me. Maybe next time!

Whichever restaurant we go to is fine with me.....I do not have a preference. But let's at least commit to a definite date so I can plan on being there...as either date is fine. Otherwise I would like to make other plans like taking my wife to the Chicago Botanic Gardens or the Morton Arboretum.......Thanx.....Leo

Please just figure out what, when and where and at what time so I can lock the date in by Thursday July 5th...because if you keep changing the plans I'm going to make plans with my wife to go to the Chicago Botanic Gardens...and spend the day there.....

I know we all have lives to live but why can't a day, time and whatever we are going to do be set so all of us can plan on it??? Why does it keep changing and getting canceled...and what restaurant are we going to meet at anyways.....to be honest I'm not even sure!!!

Man I wish you guys were doing this in a few weeks when I'll be visiting Chicago! Weathermark is decent-I used to go there when I lived in the south loop. Have you guys tried Krolls?

Would love to meet with you guys but can't do the 8th.

On another note, if anyone is in the market for a south loop one bedroom condo PM me!!

Enjoy the GTG!

I agree. I'd love to have Mr. H there, he's always fun and takes great pictures for us -- but it's a little late in the game to go rescheduling. I'm personally flexible and live about 5 mins away -- but people have confirmed already.

Hal, we're not going to all be there until around 1 pm, so maybe you could see if you get back a bit early and give us a call to see what we're still up to at that point.

Maybe we can do something around that time, too.

Still scheduled to be at Weathermark around 1 pm (or before) on the 8th. I'll see y'all there.
