"Chicago" (11th thru 13th)

Spend time in Naperville, IL with a very old friend (our friendship is old, not him). Man, Jyoti (his sister), and Jasraj (her son). It was fun to see her after so many years. I hadn't met Jasraj before. It was fun to hang out with all of them and pack Manu up so he could move east as I move west.

All along the way, especially at this point, I always got a smile on my fact when I saw a street sign that said "West". I kept thinking, "that's where I'm going, it's going to be home". If I ever had to travel east, it always felt like I was going backwards. North and South didn't have any significance.
