Here I am at Gurnee, Il. The weather is more like Portland's than I expected. At least it's cool. I walk up to the Pub (Monkey's something) after work. The slide show gives you an impression of my walk and what my room looks like.
On my first trip up (about 3/4 mile) I had a run-in with a goose. It bit me and I kicked it (would have been a 30 yarder too). Well I thought I had killed it but it managed to live. I decided to try Cheerios instead of my boot and that seemed to work. Now this goose waits for me and comes right up and waits patiently for me to feed it. Maybe, before I leave, I'll roast it.
I'll be checking out the area and adding some more pics.

Hi Dad,
Gurney looks beautiful. I'm glad you made friends with the geese. I know they can be mean suckers. I like your blog and look forward to more pictures. If you keep it clean I can put you as a link off of mine. We love ya and miss ya a lot and hope to come up there soon.
