After arriving back from Portland and catching our breath, we welcomed Val, a friend from LA, as she arrived in South Bend to visit us for a few days. We took in the sites of the city and Notre Dame before heading to Chicago to celebrate Halloween on Saturday night. This trip we were traveling in style however, as Val was in town for business and had a room at the Hard Rock Hotel all set for our arrival. We checked in and raced downtown to see Val's brother's band play - who are touring at the moment -b
efore heading out for some dinner and drinks. Despite being under dressed for Halloween, we met up with some friends from Chicago and London, and toured the town in order to judge the most creative costume. There were some definite highlights of creativity - with crowd favorites including a gentleman with a box around his waste (Google 'Justin Timberlake in a box' for this crude reference), and a 6-foot guy dressed as a Whoopee Cushion. It was a brilliant night with some old friends, and now I promise, it is back to reality, and we will finally do some work.Pictured: Jen and Val; and the view from our room.
