Invitation to Chicago & my Darkroom

[Tin Can]

I'm checking Amtrak and Chicago's bus map now.

If we visit, what should we bring for you, Randy?
Flashbulbs is my thing.
.

Just bring a camera, flashbulbs, film and we can have a POP of a time!

I really don't need anything Jac, except for your experience in POPPing the dern things!

I'm finding shutters where M doesn't work, and all kinds of little things. I may just settle for open B shutter, manual fire flashbulbing. That is working. LOL

Now I need to convince Ilko to open his empty loft for a AirB&B. I gotta call him in a while. He's in NOLA editing a movie for 9 months.

And I only discovered that because of Will's comment about B&B, that link above looks like a plan for Ilko. He's broke, but a great editor of Indie Documentaries. After NOLA it's Berlin for him, the Devil!

So thank you Will, even little comments can turn into something!

Maybe I'll drop by when I visit the US & Canada next year.

I have to take my daughter to visit Northwestern this summer (she will be a senior in high school next year and is looking at colleges in the US and Canada this summer). Perhaps we will spend a day as tourist in Chicago and I'll drop round and buy you a beer, or even develop some film. Its great sometimes to put a face to a name. Eddie Gunks used to stop by in Bangkok now and then, but otherwise I haven't had any visitors in this part of the world.

Small world Tim. Our son is in a post-bac premed program at Nothwestern as we speak. He finishes in June.

I am from the Chicago area also. It is well worth the visit!

I do have some business coming up in Chicago, not sure when exactly but I would like to visit your digs while I am there...

I (and I am sure many others) appreciate your frequent postings and contributions here. Don't let the bastards grind you down! If I ever find myself in your area I'll look you up for sure.

Randy, hope you realize my comment was an attempt at humor. I recall some mention of a motorcycle in you darkroom space. Maybe I imagined it, that's happening more lately.

Anyway, hopefully I'll make it to Chicago on of these days. It would be great to meet in person and see your studio. As far as the B&B goes I in can sleep in my truck and I'll buy you breakfast.
