Well...Here are the Pics of the 3T WIS Meet in Chicago
That's TonyD with His Girlfriend Carla,and Myself....Our Flights were Delayed because of a Snowstorm in Chicago...and After a Few Cocktails ..Sleep was In Order


Saturday was the Big Day...Randy and Greg Picked us Up (sorry no pics....many were lost)and it Was Off to Smart Jewelers ! The Zenith Display Caught Everyones Attention..and Glen Purchased a Air Boss...From Howard


After Spending an Hour or So at Smarts we were Off to the Yard House for Lunch...a New Resteraunt with 112 Beers on Draft...needless to Say No Pics
The Highlight of the Day was at the Cigar King...and Institution in Skokie!


Jordan(owner) pictured Here with Tony was a True WIS and Opened Up his Display Cabinets for Our Inspection.....Cigars and Single Malt Scotch Provided by Jordan Was a Pleasure as we ooogled His Fine Collection of Timepieces !





The Cigar King Was Huge with Walls of Cigars and Accessories from Around The World...Rows of Recliners Were Perched in Front of Two Big Screens as Patrons Enjoyed the Playoff Games with a Good Smoke!
While We Were Being Given a Tour of Watches,Like this Dubey and Schauldebrand...a Real Beauty!


Reggie One of the Hosts at the Cigar King was Wearing a OGII of All Things,Jordan a Classic Speedmaster!All in All The Cigar King was KING ! afer a Couple of Hours it was Back to Our Hotel to get Ready for a Night on the Town ! Carmines was our Destination another Landmark in Downtown Chicago...

Needless to say the Place Was Packed to the Gills! So it was Off to The Lounge for a couple Libations while Waiting to be Seated!

At Dinner ...The Gang Yucking it Up!
First Pic is Glen,Myself and Tony!


After Dinner We were Off to a Cigar Jazz Lounge and Back to Carmines for a Nightcap! First Pic is of Glen,his Wife Wendy,Myself,Carla and TonyD!


The Experience was Awesome to Meet Your WIS Friends in Person....and I Think We All Agreed..That It Was Like We Had Known Each Other for Years....WIS Friends

Tony..........I noticed the red in your eyes in the last 2 photos.............are you, SATAN? If so, the Church Lady is looking for you.

Oscar, great pictures, although, where is Randy (and for that matter, where in the hell is Cheeps)?  It looks like a great time was had by all.................next stop, Phoenix?

and yes, as an old Chicago "boy", I have been to Carmine's......fantastic!!!!

Really nice pics Oscar but for some reason I thought there were more people than that coming. By the way I need to get you guys to my Karatedo class for some exercise, it relieves stress and tension while teaching you other things as well.

I hope to make it to the next gathering.:cool

PS Ken you are right on with Shawn Wilsie Oscar didnt tell anybody that he was going to show up....................LOL

Oscar, you mean you never borught the FZ20 there?! :? Well data transfer can be lost in the line and no surpirse too.

I really wish those pics were retrieved. I can see that you guys were having so much fun!!! Just imagine meeting for the first time with WIS cyber friends and yet like you said, like some reunion for friends!!!

I only wish I was there! :?

PS: Which Greg were you referring to? Bummer I do not know all their names but I do know their user names! :P:P:P
