Post Chicago Pen Show Meet Up

Ditto. If anyone spots it that would be fantastic. Otherwise I am pretty sure we will hunker down and pay for parking. I do hate having worry or question things. Perhaps Mr. Wooten can field this question soon.

Mr. Wooten was kind enough to email me the parking details...

"Easy to find – it is on Zemke and Orchard Place (there is not much back where the hotel is.)"

See everyone tomorrow (Saturday 5/2).

I'm pretty sure I did. I drove through the area last weekend and there is a multi-level parking structure behind the office building which is just to the south-east of the hotel (across the street). Usually these parking garages, when attached to office buildings housing multiple tenants, are free - so I believe that this is the one.

If you drive past the hotel and look to the east, you can see it.

Great time here so far. Look forward to meeting you all tomorrow.

I'll be there bright and early in the morning!

My "haul" from today. Only one pen, but some fun stuff.



I now have a Waterman's Pen. My first one and it writes like a dream. I love it.







Again, my phone doesn't do the pictures any sort of justice. It is a light/dark brown mix with some red lines in it. It really jumped out to me today and I'm really loving it.

Dang!! Nice haul!! I'm looking forward to meeting everyone in just a few! Woohoo!

Really great to hang out with you guys today! Hopefully can get together before the next show!

It was fun meeting you and everyone else as well. It's nice to put some faces and personality to the online names and posts. I look forward to getting together some time down the road with everyone south of the border. Or let me know when y'all are coming up here to Daly's or Anderson's and I'll see if we can meet up there.

As I said in my other post, I had more fun at this year's show than in any past year. The difference was in meeting all of my friends, both old and new. The hobby is a lot of fun, but the people in the hobby are really what makes it all worth it.

It was an awesome pen show this year. Being able to hang out with everyone and meeting everyone. The hobby itself. The pens, inks, paper, and all of that is great. But really for me, its the people behind the pens. Thats what makes this worth it. I just love it. I am looking forward to our next little meeting and I do hope that we can get everyone up to Daly's and Andersons. For sure!

It was great to meet everyone at the Chicago Pen Show. So nice to have people relatively new to the hobby as well as the seasoned veterans together wandering from table to table. Looking forward to meeting again soon.
