I have arrived at the hotel and will be meeting the group in a few minutes.  Let the fun begin (I have a feeling it has already begun in my absence....)

While it is always exciting to be at AMG, we are really missing a significant number of our regulars.  We can't let this happen again!  Hopefully we will keep everyone posted.  It is a smaller group this year in such a large and fun city.  We are one block off Michigan in the heart of the Magnificent Mile.

I sure wish I was there too! Have a great time y'all.

Since there are no hills there to climb to get to the liquor joints like there was in Seattle 8) , let me reminder you all to be careful. LOL
