Chicago Zonie Reunion - August 1-6!



Since I'm now writing on a variety of topics,  this "photo album" is about a recent trip to Chicago where I had five fun days with a great group of online women friends from Dottie's Weight Loss Zone - which is why we are the Zonies!  :)   Photos were taken by Beth Ziemba  (thanks, Beth!) and me!

Day 1 -  Thursday, August 1
As soon as we arrived at the hotel, the party began!

Day 5 (Karen Firosz and I stayed an extra day) -  We took the train into Chicago and then walked several blocks to the bus stop for the Museum of Science and Industry.  We spent a few hours there, returned to downtown Chicago, once again took the train (albeit the wrong train!).   We finally got back to Wheaton, and then had a lovely dinner at The Cheesecake Factory!

Here are a few photos taken at the Museum of Science and Industry:
