Awake: 5:25am sleep 7+13 rain + TRW's. Overnight @ Warrenville, Illinois.
Kathy & I snuck out of our room so as to not wake up Corinne; she will have her own room tomorrow. We each got about (30) min on the treadmill in the workout room & then we had our Continental breakfast.
@ 9:45am, Nick, Jerry & I motored to the Mens Wearhouse to get our Tux's for the wedding (About 10 miles from the Hyatt.) During our visit, Chuck, father of the Bride, was also getting measured for his Tux... & Zack as well as (1) other Nick in the wedding party getting Tux's. Katie, the bride to be, was there also.
Back @ the swimming pool, the gang assembled & the fun began again. About this same time, Katrina arrived from Denver. Zack, Corinne, Katrina, & Kathy & I had some catch up time before joining the water crowd. And then, it was time for us to watch the kids do their water splashing & the big guys do their cannonballs. Katrina wasted no time in getting into her swimming suit. Get ready, get set..... Nick, Kevin & Zack. Mid afternoon, we all went to the Red Robin restaurant for those gourmet burgers & other tasty foods. Kathy & I shared a burger & a blackened salmon sandwich.
Early evening, with Corinne's permission, Kathy & I motored across town to Elmwood Park, ..near Kathy's childhood neighborhood; about (20) miles from the Hyatt. Kathy & some of her close school friends had a mini reunion @ Joyce & Bill's house this evening. The husbands, who have known each other for decades were also invited. And here are the ladies; We guys shot the bull for over an hour.... & the ladies giggled & reminisced for twice that long. Then Bill ordered delicious Italian sausage pizza from Armand's & when the pizza arrived, along with Joyce's yum-yum salad, followed by cake & ice cream for dessert, we rejoiced in mixing the conversation with the ladies way passed darkness. It sure was a fun evening.
Then we said our goodbyes for now; all except Sylvia will be attending the Katie & Zack wedding on Sunday. The drive back to the Hyatt was fast & smooth.
Katrina was sound asleep when we arrived & Corinne was in her own room, so we woke up no one.
Lights out: 12:14am.
