Departing the Basas
The Michigan morning was unexpectedly cold- with a borrowed coat (which made J and honorary Basa and union member) and a fleece I just happened to take with me with the expectation of washing it in my parents washer and leaving it there, we left Michigan around 3pm. We were sure not to leave until we were able to pick up some pies from the Grand Traverse Pie Company for the road and for our gracious Chicago boarders: Joel, Ben and Corey.
On the road we had one of the top 5 chicken pot pies I have ever had. You would think it might be difficult to take a chicken pot pie to go, but with the help of some traffic and a good co-pilot, it is easier than you think.
Chicago greeted us around 7pm Chicago time, with a McDonalds right in the middle of the highway and the town preparing for the Chicago triathlon, which Joel is participating in (Go#8812!!).
Dinner at Jin ju with some Bi bim bop and Bulgogi almost completed our night. Top that Korean food off with an Apple Carmel Pecan pie with vanilla ice cream on top and some good company and you know you will sleep well.
Tomorrow we start our morning with some McHuggins, Stipe and Chicago.

I could go for a McHuggin right now...
