This place is perfect and almost positive they will have a ton of rooms, unless there is a wedding across the street

when you get to O'Hare, call american taxi from the baggage claim area in any terminal. They're on the phone bank for rides/hotel/etc. says on their website it's flat rate of $28 from O'Hare to the area where AP is.

Car rental for the day is usually under $30 for the whole day. Saturday is a pretty cheap day for them. I rented a car my last trip and I think the total was under $25, including the taxes and all of the other B.S. they add in.

If your flying into Midway and have not rented a car yet BE PREPARED. Rental cars are basically sold out. Enterprise, Thrifty and Dollar still have a few available. Ecomony and Compact sizes are running $110 per day. Absolutely ridiculous.

He actually did a good job on Aldeb I thought, all things considered. Gotta' love the "New Barn" angle

Can't get up there this weekend, but here's to safe trips, lots of fireworks, and a huge Dee Tee presence for our girls!

Default Aldebutante arrives, settles
I just got back from dinner with TC and saw Aldebutante, she is settled in nicely and was eating when I was there. She looks really good in the flesh, in my nonexpert opinion
