    Maggie and I went to meet Adam from The Ashland last night. What a super COOL bunch of guys they are!!

    The bar sits right on the corner and has plenty of room both in front and out back for a lot of people. They were also getting their patio together while we were there as well. These guys were extremely nice and accomodating and the bar environment is very PJ fan friendly.. lots of posters, comic stuff, and just a general non-poseur vibe to it all. Really liked this place.

    They are working on trying to get a beer sponsor for the night as well as some extra special goodies from GameStop. They're also doing a $50 bar tab to the raffle! Woot!

    We ♥ them!

    Ok, ignore the hotel info above. They are a) renovating the Days Inn and b) the part that isn't under construction is booked solid.

    Sooooo...........

    Mr. Nixon, Michigan Team Leader, has discovered an even better option:

    Westin Michign Ave
    909 North Michigan Avenue
    Chicago, IL 60611
    312-943-7200

    Search Priceline for North River / North Chicago and find the Westin. It's a 4 star hotel and he got it for $100/night + tax.

    I am seriously thinking about coming. My husband even told me to go ahead and book the trip. Need to figure out if I want to spend the $$ to come or save for a tour. Decisions!!!!! :shock:
