This morning I washed down the boat to get rid of the boat spiders and clean it a bit. Chandra came over for lunch. Still the Cruising permit has not arrived but when it does Chandra will scan it and e-mail it to me until I can get home to pick up the original.
We then went for a walk to Filenes Basement. Brenda wanted to do a little shopping.
Tonight went to Buddy Guy's place to hear a little blues. Got there at 6:30 and the show didn't start until 9:30. After a couple of beers and dinner, I dozed off a bit, but did wake up when the band started playing. No it wasn't Buddy Guy but still a pretty good band. Caught a cab back to the marina. The cabbie didn't have change for a 20 which is perhaps understandable at 11 at night. However it took him about 15 minutes to process a credit card. I think there is something wrong with Chicago cabbies. Last night I had to guide the cabbie to the marina and the waterfront even though it was only about 6 blocks away.
Tomorrow we depart Chicago for the river system.

Should have gotten Chandra's advice on cabbies...they tried to scam us the first time, but Chandra was in the car and corrected the basic billing fee and gave us the heads up on their practices. Some are honest though. Generally loved taking cabs in Chicago. Hope your journey down the Illinois is uneventful.
