I wish I had half your endurance! Especially since we ended up the next day flying almost all the way back to KLUM, our home base, and then finding out we had to fly BACK to MDW (ask James). We ended up flying 8 hrs on Saturday!

It was fantastic meeting everyone, though. JC has some seriously cool people -- great stories and lots of laughs. I wish I could have spent more time than just Saturday! I posted pics on my flickr site from flying into MDW and doing the VFR flyway along the shore. It was surprisingly easy flying in and out of MDW, if anyone else is thinking of doing it. Fly in, take the el downtown, and you're all set.

Argh. That must have made for LOOOOONG day. I suppose you guys are thankful that you didnt stick around on Saturday night - although it would have been awesome if you had more time. It was great meeting you both.

Nice pics!
