Re: Small sensors are better than you think

2021-04-17 Thread Godfrey DiGiorgi

Thank you, Ann! 

Is that the Pizzeria Uno on E Ohio Street in downtown Chicago? There might be 
time to make a stop there… :D

I don't know exactly how much of my time there will be taken up by business, 
most of the time I'll be up in Waukegan area. But if there's time, and dinner 
calls, a bit of the original Chicago deep dish pizza sounds real good! I might 
have a full day to spare on my hands..

Yes: I posted that set of photos some time around November 2019.

You won't be passing through Chicago to and from the airport .. .
Wauegan is one of our burbs.. and 2 miles north is the town of Zion
where I was staying
when the 2010 PDML exhibit was on... at my oldest friend's daughter's
home was and where friend spent her last years of life.. the banner on
my web page was taken in the Illinois Beach Nature Preserve -
essentially in Waukegan. There is a woodland trail there along the
lake. O'Hare airport is south west from Waukegan and North west of
Chicago proper..

Sorry you aren't really staying in the city... but you can get stroll
along the shore of Lake Mich in that state park on along the woodland
trail.. such

a different look than what you are used to.

Ann,

I've only been in Chicago a couple of times and very briefly at that … Never
had any time to learn the city.

I'm not actually going to be in Chicago much on this trip either: I'll spend
most of my time a bit up-state in Waukegan. It's mostly a pass-through Chicago
on the way from and to the airport.

Yeah, the pizzerias may all be takeout only. Sigh.

Yes! .. but don't call it's location "downtown" there is no"downtown" in Chicago in the
sense you mean .. in Chi town it is "the Loop" so called because part of the elevated section of
the subway system makes that shape ..

Uno's has a sister location nearby which is a bit larger and absolutely the
same pie - and my fave of the two locations.. BUT
looks like they are just doing take out due to THE virus.. it is at the corner
of Wabash and Ontario. .. Possibly Uno is only takeout/delivery.

What hotel are you staying in? We should talk when you are on your way or
there..

Is it possible you have NEVER been to Chicago?

hugs,
ann
