    Default Anyone Going to the Chicago Pen Show?

    The Chicago Pen Show will run from April 29 to May 2, 2010.

    Anyone going?

    I'll be there. I've already sent away for my "weekend pass."

    I'll be driving from southern California. Road Trip! =)

    Your first pen show. Coolness!

    Which days are you going? Perhaps we can do lunch?

    Anyone else?

    Alas - no. In the nine years I've been accumulating pens I've yet to be able to attend a show - one of these days...

    I never would have guessed that. you should make eriquito tell you all his stories from both of the LA Peb Shows he's been to.

    Oh Kelly G, yes, absolutely, you *must* attend a pen show "one of these days..."

    Keep it on your to-do list. A pen show is one of the ways we can re-live the "kid in a candy store" feeling.

    Come to Chicago! You're not too far away =)

    I will be to the west of you folks that weekend in St. Charles at the Chicagoland International Pipes & Tobacciana show held at Pheasant Run resort. Actually from Wednesday though Sunday. Being from downstate, my distaste for heavy traffic is the reason I won't make an appearance at the Pen show. But y'all have fun.

    Is there heavy traffic in Chicago?
    I mean... heavier than Los Angeles?

    You'll be so close to the pen show! Surely there's a commuter train that could bring you to the party for a few hours on Saturday?
