Woo hoo, I'm going to Chicago!

For over a year now I'm been "home-sick" for my alma mater, Valparaiso University, and in particular, it's theatre program. There were a couple of times that I almsot dragged Chris on spur of the moment trips out there, but common sense prevailed. So now, after saving our money, we're going to Chicago! We'll be spending some time at Valpo, some time in the city, and hopefully some time with friends. I just booked our flights and also tickets for two shows we're going to. Noises Off on campus, and Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead at Piccolo, which is a group founded by a bunch of other Valpo alums. In fact, one of my friends is directing the show and a few others are in the cast.

And in other travel news, the following week I'll be going to Vegas for work. April/May is going to be a busy time for me.

We'll be there at the end of April. The weather could be nice or could be cold, so not sure yet what we'll be doing in terms of sight seeing. We have a month and a half to figure that out.
