Those poles are very like the ones I have and love. Can you get them in time with rush shipping for Virginia?

Chicago trip was very nice. Once again, a hotel that was panned on TripAdvisor turned out to be perfectly adequate and actually quite nice. I had forgotten what the package included, but we had a tray waiting on our bed with a chilled bottle of ChocoVine and a small plate of strawberries cut into little roses. We got a certificate for their breakfast buffet which was basically scrambled eggs, with or without ham and cheese, hash browns, bacon or sausage, and French toast. The highlight of the trip was taking the L-train downtown to Frontera Grill for a wonderful dinner.

Checked out the Costco next to IKEA in Schaumburg as well as Mitsuwa.

Food:

8:45 am Scrambled eggs w/diced ham and cheese, 1/4 c hash browns, 1/3 blueberry bagel w/thin schmear, 2 pc bacon, 12 oz orange juice, coffee
1:00 pm 3 oz roast duck, 1/2 c ramen, 6 spears baby bok choy, 2 small scoops ice cream
