See you soon!
I'm going to try to go to the Red Sox vs. Rays game on Saturday, but John Friday on Sunday (???) might be fun.
Hey I'm going to the Red Sox / Rays game on Saturday

Would you have room for an extra passenger if I threw in some $$$ for gas?
As I said before, I won't have a rental car since I'm staying just across the street from the fairgrounds, so if I go anywhere else, I'll need to depend on the kindness of strangers.

Yeah, I just went on line and bought one. First base bleachers for $15.00 & some change.
I'm a Yankee fan, so don't make me ride in the trunk, okay?

Well, as long as you let me out when we get to the ballpark. You can promise me THAT, can't you?
It would be pretty hard to buy you a beer while I was locked inside your trunk.

By the sounds of it i'm not sure a cat will fit in the trunk of the rental.. I got the "economy"
But if you do fit, Ill make sure to leave a six pack and crack the trunk a little so you can at least hear the game.

Nothing like getting love from a Red Sox fan. Yes, a six pack in the trunk would be fantastic.
And you SHOULD come to Chicago for the concert. It's the "other league", I know, but the Astros are in town to play the Cubs that Friday.

Tinley Park is in the eastern suburbs of Chicago, not really hard to get to, but traffic on I-80 in eastern Illinois can be a nightmare. You should probably allow yourself 10 hours for the drive. If you get on Interstate 80 in Pennsylvania and head west, you'll go right past the venue in Tinley Park. You shouldn't have any problems if you stay on I-80, but if you did, you could call any one of us to guide you.

I-80 was my plan looking at the map, I may take a detour to Cleveland to go to the rock n roll hall of fame..... And maybe the worlds largest ball of string (kidding)

If you go to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, tell them Garry Joseph of Oxford, Iowa says they should pull their heads out of their a$$es and put the MONKEES in. (OH YES, THEY SHOULD)!!!!!

Well friends I'm leaving in the AM to head to the left coast. I'll be looking for bars and fishing spots until I hit Tampa on Wed. I'll be at La Quinta across from the venue. I'll likely be fishing or hanging at the pool. Hope to see you all there and safe travels to all.
