P.P.S. Make sure you check out our CAUSE OF THE MONTH. As a community we're supporting the Charity Water September Birthday Campaign. We're trying to raise $4,000 to build a well in an Ethiopian villiage, which will provide clean drinking water for 400 people for 20 years. Read all about it here.
I was in Chicago earlier this month--I grew up there and my parents are still there--and it was lovely!
There's a Chicago 29Gifters Group, that you might want to join. Click on "Groups" above and find the Chicago one.
