Once a year we treat ourselves and our guests to a day-long excursion to the Windy City for outstanding shopping along the Magnificent Mile. Our transportation is a luxurious coach bus, and includes piping hot coffee, juice, and light breakfast fair. We arrive in Chicago with ample time to shop, enjoy lunch at one of the many outstanding restaurants in downtown Chicago, and have a cocktail in the afternoon. By early evening, we are back on the bus headed for home with wine, a box sandwich dinner, and a movie. So as not to detract from our local retailers during the important Christmas shopping season, our standing date is the Friday before deer hunter widows weekend. Treat yourself and a sister, girlfriend, mother or daughter to a leisurely paced day. We do the work. You sit back, relax and enjoy!
