We took this photo of their place from the southeast
on the morning we were to depart.

Cherry trees were loaded with fruit - in the orchard next to their house! Time for goodbyes in the driveway. Now in Evanston near Chicago, Bill visits with Lloyd Osborn - holding their Boston terrier. Bill, Lloyd, Tim Cagney, and Robert Smith - in Lloyd and Robert's newly remodeled kitchen. At the Old Orchard Shopping Center - Bill, Tim, Robert, and Lloyd.
Our day in Chicago starts near Wrigley Field - where the Cubs are about to play the Cardinals. Down in Belmont Harbor on the lakefront - people gather to play with their dogs. Rick Martin and Bill. Rick spent the day with us. Larry threw a party in this bar in May - for the visitors to his Hotboots web site. This we joked was 'very Chicago' - The el going by and Wrigley Field in the same photo.
The ball game is still going on - and there's quite a carnival going on in the streets, too. The el is, well, 'elevated'. A look up at the scoreboard. On October 20, 1976, we met in this restaurant, Sawa's Old Warsaw. - We were delighted to see it was still there. - Web pages about it say it is now 'an institution'. - Does this mean we are now an institution? It was fitting that Rick - our longest time friend to know us both - could join us.
