Hi, All,

I just had to share with you that yesterday I was approved to travel to
Chicago on October 14-18. There is a remainder book show at the Chicago
Hilton and I also get to drive to Gurnee to see our store in the Gurnee
Mills Outlet. I’m so excited! I haven’t gone on a business trip since
June of last year.

I’m also writing this in hopes that maybe I could meet some of you from
Chicago while I’m there. My days will be pretty full, but, some nights
won’t be completely booked, i.e. vendor dinners. So, if anyone is game,
let me know. I’ve only been to Chicago about two times and that was
years ago on other business trips (we used to have a distribution center
in Roselle, IL).
