I happened to be in Chicago, Illinois for the RSNA ( Radiological Society of North America) annual meeting and I was lucky enough to sneak away one night for some pickleball at the Tennis and Fitness Center, located at 301 Lake St, Oak Park, IL. It was crazy cold and there were only two players (Richard and Mike) playing that evening, but they were kind enough to let me play with them and I got in several games. Everyone was very nice! Richard and Mike were both very nice and showed me around a little. The front desk personnel were also very nice, as were both Uber drivers that drove me to and from the Fitness Center. I enjoyed it! Thank you to everyone there! And….I picked up state number 5!
A special shout out to the Chicago Art Institute. I was fortunate enough to attend a meeting there on Tuesday, December 3, 2019. A beautiful place with incredible displays. I was lucky to encounter a guide there who visited with me for quite some time and showed me around. He was very nice and knowledgeable. I am sorry that I do not recall his name. But I will never forget the experience!
