Get some good street food from the Chicago street food vendors!! (and stock up on some extra and some bottled water for the next leg of your journey) Looking forward to your report on how the Chicago layover went once you are heading east out of Chicago. Enjoy and stay safe!! |

Quoting: Plato seven of 9 So wait... beers are 10 bucks, waters 7, and Gatorade 9? Something like that? THAT IS SO SERIOUSLY FUCKED UP! That's like... that's like strip club prices, Plato! Damn, son. My heart goes out to you. Enjoy Chicago. By the way, I think it was super nice of guitar ace to suggest smoking you out. I know he's super busy these days, so just the fact he would potentially make time from his schedule to help a fellow GLPer out is a very nice gesture, in my humble opinion. Love this thread. Keep us updated as you see fit, OP Cheers! ~Wharf Rat |

Enjoy and stay safe!! Thank you 10- 4 & Wilco! Really hoping for a nice burrito or some Indian food. Than you on the reminder I need to get a lot of water. Been eating less because of the "water scarcity" They have a little water fountain but its designed to be disgusting and dispense 2 oz f water per 5 min... lol that's why I buy the water |

Or some pistachios or almonds.. I took a 6-pack of Coors with me, also. I have family (an aunt and cousins in Boston/Wenham) but haven't been there to visit. Stay safe and enjoy the trip out of the Midwest. You can always escape the Massholes by visiting the Mainiacs further north in the moose-filled woods.. :fireplace: "Remember when we used to treat colds and flu with chicken soup, saltwater gargles and warm tea instead of Communism?" |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79052857 United States 04/15/2021 11:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'll be back in the town of the beans by tomorrow evening!!!! Thank you loves. A note on mask enforcement- In CA, super chill.. pretty much optional unless some germaphobe complaines... that was the conductors words. Then the empire builder holy shit they were enforcing strict measures... idk man the midwest is fucked... blue tape, mask reminders every 5 min. Someone was putting pressure on them. Now on the chicago train... totally different story. Not a word about masks yet. No conduc8has said "wear your mask " that ive heard since boarding. And some people aren't wearing one. Kinda weird how In one region they freak out and in others nobody cares. So... this virus is fake guys. Just fyi. Masks are muzzles... its mind control. Only wear one if.you have to as it's a sign of indentured servitude |

Quoting: MyShinyHiney Uh. Because, the midwest is terrifying -have you ever been there? Nothing but corn fields and plenty of places to get dissapeared and never heard from again. Big open spaces no oceans and only white people. Yeah I'm good thanks! You are scared of white people? |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 79543875 United States 04/16/2021 12:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | why the mean look? :D tbh i feel like sleeping on a train would be so relaxing. top level ASMR unless you have loud drunk neighbors Sorry didn't mean to grill you that's prob resting bitchface... :) Pretty relaxing especially at the higher speeds. We have one conductor who is a mask nazi she actually woke me up during quiet hours to say slip your mask up over your nose... I literally got so close to telling her to fuckoff and die. .. but I wanna make it to beantown..... Mask up yall!!! You should have a mask for sleeping that you have cut some holes in to breathe. |

We took trains in Germany and always enjoyed it. I haven't been on Amtrak yet, and with the mask thing Im not sure I want to. Good for you, getting out and meeting folks and seeing the countryside! Heres to new adventures. |

No, fearful of the vast desolate emptiness... and highly dislike the lack of cultural representation... I like there to be many cultures around me. Dont care for the racist yokels out that way .

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79190295 United States 04/17/2021 01:11 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hey sorry i owe you guys a final update! Thanks for asking, yeah it worked out pretty well. I do not recommend amtrak to anyone, friend or mortal enemy. Its unsuitable for even livestock transport. They need to go bankrupt and stop being a company forever. Me though I'm lovely, saw my dad and best friend, they brought my car to the train then I took us out for dinner, we all got baked, ate good food, laughed a lot, now I'm crashing at my buddy's house for the night. Tomorrow we'll kick it, makeup for a lot of lost time. Thanks again for sticking with me guys...it was pretty heroing experience, some cool stufand some shitty stuff. The cloak definitely did its job protection from the evil forces. Saw so many amish people... actually learned a bit about them. That's a topic for another day.... Yeah so.. mission accomplished! I lived to tell the tale. AND THEY ALL BLAH BLAH SOMETHING HAPPILY EVER AFTER THE END (fin) |
