Truthfully I hope next week is the last week I will ever spend in this area. I was trying to find a fishing guide in the area, nope. Closest one was two hours away. I did go to Schaumburg and hang out for a while. Very nice place and friendly people, didn't take them long to get over my southern accent. Of course I poured it on thick just to aggravate. I talk to Steve Powers this morning, he was thinking about coming in but got socked in with fog of the river. Met some nice guys there is a flight school there who is charging $180 hr. for a Twin Comanche. I think that's prity good considering the flight school across the lobby from him is charging that for a C172.
 
Don, give a shout the next time you're in this area. I need to color Illinois into my states visited map.

I'm curious why someone would need a fishing guide in the Chi-town area... :D

Didn't want to check luggage so I thought I would catch up with a local guide and get some info on the area and rent some gear. There's nothing in these big cities for me. I have caught up on some drinking sense I've been here.
 
Pilot Petes has reopen at (06C) now. Very good food and service. If I didn't live so far away I would be back. Maybe when I fly to Oshkosh I'll make this my staging airport for my a.m. arrival.
 
There is a Sundowner and a Musketeer tied up on the ramp. Both look to be on good airworthy condition from the fence. I couldn't make out the "N" numbers on either.
