    "To get long" meant to make do, to make well of whatever we had; it was about having a long view, which was endurance, and a long heart, which was hope.

    I held a dinner group at Isla Pilapina during a brutally hot August evening a couple years ago, going during the cooler fall temps will be welcome & I've meant to get back for some time. I'm in !
    I did absolutely nothing and it was everything I thought it could be.

    MDW or ORD? If latter, you are welcome to get a ride with me as I live just north of ORD so very easy for me to give you a lift.

    There might be a bit of Malamute hair in the car but nothing too bad, just stating in case you plan on wearing all black or are allergic.

    ORD--I am most always covered in dog hair with 3 at home so no worries there-- thanks SW!!

    Just saw on Twitter that Isla Pilipina is collecting clothes, non-perishable food, toys, etc. for storm victims--probably a good idea for us to bring contributions if we can.

    That's a really great idea - I've got a pile I've been meaning to take to a charity shop.

    Some guidance I received from a coworker who was soliciting donations: used and new clothing (no winter clothes), towels, cases of water, first aid kits, easy to open canned-goods, bread, gym shoes, disinfectant wipes and gels, sneakers, flip flops.

    I think it's great you guys are thinking of donating.

    Sorry to do this but I'm swamped with work and can't take a break for lunch today. Sorry to miss seeing everyone (and the ride to the airport--thanks again for the offer Willie) but duty calls. Enjoy!!
