Rescued
I managed to get myself stranded in Chicago due to finishing up some business dealings which caused me to miss my train.
I wanted to just post a thank you to Ryan (Bandrik) and his family for being so good to me and coming and getting me.
I'm not even mad that my phone got destroyed after being given faulty directions to walk thru the pouring rain in a dark park looking for a underground tunnel that was about 100 feet from the place the bus dropped me off. Or that I had to get off of a train in Gary and sit in a small booth filled with Nation of Islam literature while waiting 30 minutes for Ryan to get there (this is where I was told to go by him).
My phone is insured, so I'll get a new one soon. I didn't get sick from the walk. And I wasn't attacked in Gary. So things worked out alright. And the bus and train people took such pity on me, that without me saying a word, they collected the money from everyone around me, but not me. :-)
Ryan arrived with a towel, dry clothes, spicy V8 to warm me up, a tasty turkey sub from subway, and some locally brewed root beer to cheer me up. So Ryan is now my hero. And his mom was very helpful with ideas, too.
