My sister and I are flying out of Chicago O’Hare on August 19th. I was wondering if anybody would like to meet us for lunch around 11:30. I don’t know Chicago, so I need to leave it up to someone else to pick a place. Our dad and stepmom will be with us (our ride :)) so (please!) nowhere too skeezy, but close to the airport. We adore coffee shops, if that helps. ---

How much time do you have? IIRC, there’s nothing besides Denny’s, etc. by the airport and to eat in the airport, you’d have to take out a loan. If you’ve got an extra hour before and after, I’m sure we could organize something downtown. ---

> [@Chairman Pow](#): > > How much time do you have? Our flight leaves at 2:50pm. We will be driving from Cedar Rapids, IA. According to Yahoo! maps, the earliest we could be there is 11. I s’pose I could pester everyone into leaving at 6, but it probably wouldn’t be appreciated. 🙂
